15th November 2024: This was a busy week for the 🐓🐓🐓’s. Cavan Women’s Shed kindly invited our Shed members to join them for one of their weekly meetings and this visit took place on Thursday, when Cootehill 🐓🐓🐓’s Shed received a fantastic welcome from Cavan 🐓🐓🐓’s Shed in Terry Coyle Park. We enjoyed the line dancing, chat and craic and look forward to reciprocating the invitation in the future. Thank you ladies for a wonderful morning.

This Friday morning in our own Shed we had the usual tea, coffee, chat and treats, ☕️🫖🥮, then we had a visit from Lorraine from Cavan Development who went through some table work to determine what was ‘good, bad and ugly’ in the Shed 😂 the results are lots of good and very minimal bad and ugly 😂. We love our Shed and are blessed to have a very active and dedicated Committee who never tire of organising events and activities for us., thank you so much 💖. Suggestions from the ‘have your say box’ were read out and we all look forward to doing some of these activities in future Shed mornings. Have a lovely weekend everyone, there are lots of things on this weekend with Santa and Christmas markets coming to town, whatever you are doing, enjoy 🐓💖

8th November 2024: We had a fantastic morning in the Shed, we had our usual tea, coffee, treats ☕️🫖🥮 and chat and then we started making up and wrapping our shoe boxes 📦🎁 for the homeless. It was a lovely thing to be part of, lots of 🐓🐓🐓’s from all different backgrounds coming together as one to bring a bit of joy to the people experiencing homelessness. The hall was full of activity, lots of things were donated and Lisa Hogan, Cootehill Youth Club, kindly directed our efforts. Lisa and Cootehill Youth Club had a very successful shoebox appeal last year and we’re very thankful to her for helping us out today. We had 78 boxes prepared when we ran out of shoe boxes, lots of donated items left over, these will be used by Lisa to fill other boxes. It was altogether another great and successful morning in the 🐓’s Shed. Well done everyone 👏🐓💖

1st November 2024: Another great morning in the Hen’s Shed. There was the usual tea, coffee, chats and treats ☕️🫖. This is the final morning for the Pilates classes, those that took part in the classes throughly enjoyed them 🧘‍♀️. Carmel led the way in some line dancing routines for those that wanted to step-it-out 🤠👯‍♂️👯‍♀️👯. Co-ordination and rhythm were the aim and I have it on good authority there was definitely some present 😜, although practice makes perfect 😂. Look forward to seeing you all next Friday, have a lovely week everyone 🐓💖

18th October 2024: Hallow’een arrived a little early for us and we had plenty of ghosts, witches, ghouls and pumpkins 👻💀🦇🎃 in the Shed today as we celebrated with a party. We had tea, coffee, bun’s, cakes and lots of treats. We had great fun with our table quiz followed by an egg and spoon race 🏃‍♀️😂. Angela did a great job keeping control of proceedings. We had prizes for the quiz, which went to The Adams Family, best halloween outfit, which sent to Geraldine, and our raffle prizes went to Sheila and Ruth, winners were delighted, well done all 👏😁. It was another great, fun morning that everyone loved. We had a fantastic morning 💀👻🎃🐓💖

11th October 2024: We had our tea, coffee, 🫖☕️treats 🍥🧁and chat, this Friday morning saw another morning for pilates classes 🧘‍♀️while the rest of us had sweating palms 🤲 and racing hearts 💗 as we tried to win at Bingo. The silence in the hall was deafening while the Bingo was going on 🙉😂 never did I think these 🐓’s could be so quiet but concentration on the numbers was evident and using mentally telepathy 🧠 to will your number 🔢 to be called out worked very well for some 😂 👏🙌. The line and panel winners were delighted, well done all 👏😁. Thank you to Breda our lovely bingo caller 💖. It was another great, fun and active morning that everybody loved. Another really lovely morning in the Hen’s Shed 🐓🐓🐓💖
