Reading Group

The set book for June was “Your Neighbour’s Wife” by Tony Parsons which had lots of twists and turns. We were not impressed with the weak characters and it was not a book that we all enjoyed.

The set book for July discussion will be “Jane Eyre” by Charlotte Bronte and, in August, we hope to discuss one of the new authors from 2021.

Fun with Languages

Our June meeting was concentrating on ordering food and drink in a restaurant, and we did some brave role plays; the first time for our new members, so well done! We did a short quiz and a wordsearch on the subject too.

Our meeting on 14th July will be hosted at Liz Attenborough’s home and will be coffee, a quiz on Spain, then drinks and nibbles with a Spanish flavour. The cost will be £1-00 and you need to let us know please if you are coming and Liz will email out her address to you. If you wish to donate some thing, that would be nice. It may go on a little after 12 noon.

The meeting on 11th August will be cancelled and we shall resume at John Godber Centre on Thursday 8th September, 2022 at 10.30 am still continuing Spanish.

New members welcome. Enjoy summer!

Ann and Liz.

u3a Outdoor Promotion

On Saturday 21st May, Hucknall and District u3a took part in a Rotary Club activity on Hucknall Market Place, open from 10am to 3pm. Over twenty local activity groups took part and it was very well attended by the Hucknall public.

Quite a few folk took interest in our display, we had several interested in joining, and one guy actually signed up and paid his enrolment fees.

On Saturday 18th June, we have a similar activity organised by Ashfield Council on Titchfield Park, we are looking for a few volunteers to share the load of attending the stall,
Please see Lynda Smeathers if you can help.
