Just for Pleasure
This is a home study group. Group members will
develop their skills in
finding and identifying the commoner British birds and will investigate
their habits in nesting, feeding and migrating. The Group will also
design and carry out a field study into an aspect of bird life in the
local area.
Held every four weeks in “Red Rooms” at Perth
Theatre Drop in any time between 10 and 12 for a “cuppa” and meet fellow
members and friends.
An opportunity to meet members not in your study group
Last year everyone contributed to the monthly offerings and we had samples of Tom Lehrer, Dave Allen, Para Handy, Rikki Fulton and Jack Milroy, Ronnie Corbett, Colin Campbell’s Local Radio, Yes Minister and McGonagall.
We intend that the group will continue to fulfil its aim of making its members laugh.
The group meets on Week 2 of the programme on
Monday lunchtime at various preselected venues. These
popular occasions provide an opportunity for members to meet socially
Our group is now in its second year and our enthusiasm for the game has grown with increased familiarity. The numbers playing have remained consistently high, but there will be room for a few members - either beginners or those who have played before, in the 2010-11 session. We follow the rules as explained in an excellent U3A handbook - a copy of which is available in electronic form.
Scrabble 1
Scrabble 1 is a house group of eight members. We meet one afternoon a month for a few games and tea. We don't take our Scrabble too seriously and have some fun and laughs over our attempts. If we can we continue throughout the summer.
Scrabble 2
Members meet as a house group every four weeks
This group was set up because the original Scrabble group was
oversubscribed.
