We stopped at The New Forest Wildlife Park to eat the packed lunches which members had brought with them, and then to see the wildlife. The lynx is normally hard to see, but we were there for feeding time, so had a really good view, and heard an interesting talk. Finally it was time to… Continue reading Avon Tyrrell 2019 – Friday – Wildlife Park and Campfire
Zumba for Cancer Charities
A great bunch of people, including Oxford Phab, got together at the Christian Life Centre on Cowley Road to have a fun evening of Zumba and raise money for local cancer charities. We had not, as a club, learned a routine this time, but Kelly and Trish had been practicing with a Zumba group, and… Continue reading Zumba for Cancer Charities
Connect Four tournament
We set up a Connect Four (Four in a row) tournament, knockout fashion. Almost everyone participated and enjoyed the game, and as we have several sets anyone who was keen could continue to play even if they had been knocked out of the main tournament
Cookery Night
Club nights which involve food are always popular, and when we cook it ourselves, that is even better ! A team in the kitchen made pizza dough, and prepared toppings. Members created their own individual pizzas, which were ready to be eaten a short while later. The results, fresh out of the oven, were delicious… Continue reading Cookery Night
Beetle Drive
Oxford Phab aims to provide activities for a wide range of abilities, and often games are played in a spirit of co-operation. Beetle can bring out the less patient side in everybody, which is why there is no record from tonight of anybody actually playing Beetle. Once games started there were no spare moments for… Continue reading Beetle Drive
Normal Club with Hockey
We baked mini sausage rolls and had some little cakes and other nibbles (left over from a church bring and share event) as a bit of a celebration of another Birthday. Some of us worked off the calories with a vigorous – if rather random – game of Hockey in the Hall.
Party and Disco with DJ Lee
Robin has been coming to Phab for many years, and we value his contributions in the form of the quizzes he arranges, the cups of tea he makes and his concerns for the smooth running of the club. We also love a party, and although we can not dedicate a club night to every birthday,… Continue reading Party and Disco with DJ Lee
Boccia
As the Christian Aid Market was setting up in the John Wesley Room, we set up the Hall, both for those who wanted to sit and chat, and an area to play Boccia. This gave the Boccia players an appreciative audience. It was great to have Hank and Joy join us for a game of… Continue reading Boccia
Club Night with Tennis
We followed our previous Club Night with Indoor Tennis in January with another tennis session, giving members an opportunity to have a bit of exercise. This session was more co-operative then competitive with a focus on trying to have longer rallies across the net. Impressively, given how high the ceiling is, the ball managed to… Continue reading Club Night with Tennis
Easter Bingo
Who would not want to win some Easter Chocolate ? (Non chocolate prizes were also brought by thoughtful members for those who can not have chocolate.) Members bring prizes and then play Bingo to win them. Above you can see us enjoying the game. Our activities could not happen if our members can not get… Continue reading Easter Bingo
