One of Lloyd’s daughters informed us early this afternoon that Lloyd had passed away peacefully in a hospice at 12.30pm Lloyd joined the Shedders soon after we started in March 2016. See what he said soon after on camera by visiting the video at the top of the home page.…
Some Wheel Good Things Being Made Well, a Pull Cart for Whitby Interactive and the Staithes car for Seaton Primary. Good news in Staithes. The Sports & Social Club have offered us the shared use of the old pigeon…
The big shock was looking for Maggie’s daughter and finding her vacuum cleaning. Not indoors on the floor but out in the garden on an area of artificial lawn. Lisa discovered that the vac magically collected dog hairs on and in the grass, leaving a bright green swathe to play…
