Any One for Croquet? 25th August 2023

Well, yes, there were16 of us for croquet! The Long Eaton Croquet Club generously allowed us access to their lawns and provided us with the equipment.

Most of us were beginners, although a few had some distant memories of playing in the past. Lack of skill may have held us back a bit, but we got the hang of it by the end of the afternoon. Importantly, it was a lot of fun.

Many thanks to the Long Eaton Croquet Club!

Garden Dance, 20th July 2023

Planning a garden dance in this country is always an expression of hope! This year, we had a few anxious moments looking at the weather forecast and rainfall radar but, in the event, it proved to be a much better evening than we could have hoped.

As usual, members from the Association and Beeston U3A mingled happily as we danced through a programme of old favourites. It was then a pleasure to relax into our fuddle and talk until the night began to fall.

Celebrating St. Andrew!

Sixty members and friends gathered for our annual St. Andrew’s Night Dinner and Cèilidh. As ever, we enjoyed an excellent meal, with the Tribute to Scotland delivered by Margaret Barnes. She put the focus firmly on the Scotswomen who contributed so much to our native land. The dancing then went with a swing with ‘Auld Lang Syne’ sending us on our way.

Coming Soon! St. Andrew’s Night Dinner and Cèilidh!
