As I write these notes in early March I am reflecting, firstly, on the amazing weather that we all enjoyed in February.
During the February half-term, I spent an afternoon at Wollaton Park, where the car park was overflowing, ice creams were the order of the day, families were sat enjoying picnics in the sun while hundreds of children played away happily in the warm weather. The warmest February day since records began.
It has also been a good month at the U3A, starting with an outstanding speaker and entertainer at the Monthly Meeting. The attendance was our highest for a very long time and more chairs and coffee cups were needed!!
Thank you to all of you who renewed your U3A membership at the meeting and I hope that you enjoy the activities planned for the year ahead. All the groups are now back up and running while David Rose’s short courses are proving very popular. On the social side the Irish Night is now sold out.
Enjoy your group activities during March.
Barrie Saunders,
Chairman
