A group of our members have suggested an alternative to writing and exchanging Christmas Cards between u3a friends.
The suggestion is that, instead, we each make a donation towards the joint u3a /John Godber Centre defibrillator fund.
If you wish to do this a collection point will be in the John Godber Centre hall at the Christmas lunch on Monday 6th December 2021 and at the film on Wednesday, 8th December
Thankyou
We were both educated and entertained by a science based quiz with our ace quiz writer and quizmaster Bob McEwen. Thanks Bob.
We also had a dress rehearsal for our entry into the Hucknall Christmas Tree Competition. The trees will be on display inside the parish church from the afternoon of Wednesday, 1st December 2021 until Saturday 4th.
Our next three meetings are on Fridays at 10.00 am on January 21st, February 18th and March 18th, 2022.
There is no meeting in April as it is Good Friday.

We are frequent uses of the John Godber Centre and many of us are ‘of a certain age’. Following on from a member suggestion, the committee have agreed to raise part of the cost of a portable defibrillator to be located inside the JGC building. It will be fully automatic and similar to the one shown below.
Any excess proceeds from the Christmas Film show will be donated to the defibrillator fund as will the alternative Christmas card donations. A collection bucket will be at the Christmas Lunch and at the film show.
Once the defibrillator is purchased a demonstration of how to use it will be arranged.
Fourteen of us enjoyed an evening in Nottingham on 18th November, 2021 visiting The Crafty Crow, The Roundhouse, The Trip to Jerusalem (a local, David, demonstrating how easy the hook and horn game is, which none of us could do), finishing off at The Royal Children where we were entertained by a group with a variety of singers, a most enjoyable night.
It was decided to return to Nottingham for our final night out of 2021 on Thurday, 16th December, by again meeting at the tram station to catch the 6.30 pm tram and to visit the Derby Road-Canning Circus area public houses.
