Future Dates for your diary.8th Dec. Chemistry of Christmas – Phil Davidson
25 walkers got the train to Seaforth and Litherland and then took part in a walk to Rimrose Valley . Again we were lucky with the weather . Bill made the walk really interesting sharing the history of the park . We stopped at 11am. along the canal to observe a 2 minute silence . Once we arrived at Waterloo station we split up to find places to eat . Thanks again Bill . Next week Cheryl and Frank are leading a walk from Hall Road details to follow later in the week.

20 walkers made their way to Moreton where we walked down to the front and stopped to have a coffee, tea and bacon baps at the little cafe. The wind was very strong on the front so we decided to have it behind us and walk to New Brighton instead Hoylake .
The views were spectacular along the way with waves high in places . We were treated to seeing wind surfers and swimmers braving the elements . The walk was 5 miles although with the help of the wind it felt shorter.
Some of us then went to the Sea Horse and had either Sunday roast or fish and chips. Feedback showed good value money .
Next week it’s the Rimrose Valley and will get 9.19 train from Maghull to Seaforth.
Think we all feel like this sometimes.
What did the little polar bear reply to the little boy who asked him “what would you like to be when you grow up?”
“Still Here” said the little bear, ahh. x

The route was said to take a little over 9 miles. but as is usual on our rambles a couple of wrong turns saw us complete a circuit of a little over 11 1/2 miles! Continue reading

WE REALLY DO NEED A TREASURER – URGENTLY
As you are probably aware we have not yet found a new Treasurer to manage the finances of our U3A and be part of the Committee. Without a Treasurer we are finding it extremely difficult to manage the financial affairs of our U3A. As we begin to reopen, the system may become unmanageable. So it is absolutely vital that we appoint the right person to this post as soon as possible.
If you have a background or experience in finance and or accounting and would like to be part of a group of Trustees that care about our U3A and would like to rise to the challenge, please, in the first instance, contact a member of Committee, in confidence, to informally express an interest and to discuss the opportunity further. This initial expression of interest to gain more information, will NOT commit you in any way.
Thank you.
