A patient at the Irene Thomas Hospice speaks out

GEOCACHING!  Irene Thomas is a kindred spirit that cares about others, animals, and this planet.  She is an incredible freelance writer who recently wrote an article about Geocaching for The Costco Connection and I thought, “people should learn how to do this!”  It’s fun, it’s easy to get started and something you can do by yourself or with your family or even small groups.  Check out this episode and let me know your “geonick” once you’re signed up!

This week on Desert Island Discs, Irene Thomas tells Sue Lawley what she will do with her phenomenal memory now the programme is no longer broadcast. She recalls how she moved from opera singer, to the Black and White Minstrels, before becoming queen of the quiz shows at the age of 41.
