Tech and Science
In March 2018 we discussed the origins and history of the Shipping Forecast.
The Shipping Forecast is produced by the Met Office on behalf of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency. It was first broadcast on 1 January 1924 as a weather bulletin called Weather Shipping before moving to the BBC a year later.

Christmas Concert
On the 10th of December we held our end of year Christmas Concert. We had a choir from Hudson Road Primary School start our show and their enthusiasm and rousing rendition of We Wish You A Merry Christmas made the perfect start to our morning.
Our six readers through prose and poetry gave us an insight into the way Christmas celebrations have changed over the years through classic and humorous works.
Aughton and Ormskirk Guitar Group then took to the stage and wowed us with a medley of songs that made us tap our toes and join in with great gusto.
We ended with a very energetic rendition of the Twelve Days of Christmas followed by tea/coffee and a mince pie.
We were also able to hand over to Woodlands Hospice the amazing sum of £615.00 – well done everyone.
Remember there are no more Tuesday Coffee Mornings until we re-open on the 7th of January 2025. Groups may well have different days for re-starting.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all .
