Christmas at Hucknall u3a

Posted on December 22, 2020 by Webmaster

This year we were ‘Dreaming of a Zoom Christmas’

Unable to hold our annual Christmas social event we had a ‘Christmas Spectacular’ via Zoom on the 9th December.

The programme featured a festive quiz, host Terry Hill with his Bumper Book of (old) Jokes , Christmas themed poems, a recording of our last year’s 10 minute pantomime ‘Cinderella’ and a finale of two songs live from the living room of The Rockin Rev Duo, the Rev Ian and Ann Murray.

It was wonderful to see and hear a live performance – thanks Ian and Ann.Many members were in full Christmas livery and enjoyed each other’s virtual company accompanied by a drink and party snack.
