Outing News
(Please note that outings are open to U3A members only.)
Monthly Outings - Reports
The first outing of 2019 was on the 20th February to see the musical "Ghost" at the Theatre Royal Brighton. This is an adaptation from the famous 1990 film. With excellent cast, good voices, moving performances and stylish choreography, there was much to enjoy.
An outing to Windsor Castle took place on the 20th March, visiting Windsor Castle, St George's Chapel and the Royal Windsor Farm and Coffee Shop.
On 10th April, a full coach of U3A members travelled to the very interesting Bletchley Park, which is famous for code breaking in World War 2. The group had a fascinating day and the consensus was that "it's well worth another visit".
On 7th May, there was an outing to Standen and Saint Hill Manor. Report to follow.
Future Monthly Outings
The June outing, on Tuesday 11th, will be to the National Trust property, Polesden Lacey, nearing Dorking. The application form was in the April Newsletter. There is now a waiting list.
On 10th July, there will be an outing to Hatfield House. Details and application form in the May newsletter.
Short Breaks
Back in October, thirty-three U3A members set off by coach for a One Night Stopover to Oxford. The group packed a lot into two days visiting beautiful Cliveden, magnificent Blenheim Palace, Bladon to see Winston Churchill's grave, Oxford (including a tour with Blue Badge Guides) and Hughenden Manor. Thank you to Sandra McDonald for all the hard work entailed in organising an overnight stay.
There will be another short break from 3rd to 6th October 2019 visiting Bath and Bristol. Details and booking form were in the January and February newsletters. At time of writing, there was one double/twin room available.
EXCITING NEWS!
There will be a 5 day break to Devon from 11th to 15th May 2020. Further details are in the May Newsletter.
These are some photos from the above outing to Cliveden, Oxford and Hughenden
