Our December meeting was hosted by Bryan Griffiths, and moved on from matters arboreal and floral to seasonal discussion (ie, what everyone was doing for Christmas) accompanied by appropriate food. Thanks were expressed to Sheila for her commitment to the group by introducing topical subjects and interesting magazine articles throughout the past year. Dates were set for 2017 as follows – January no meeting, 15th February, 15th March, 19th April, 17th May and 21 June. U3A members who might wish to join us, please contact Sheila for further details.
