In this What’s On section we shall be keeping you up to date with what we have planned at Littlehampton u3a over the coming months but please don’t forget that the weekly Bulletin is also an excellent source of information.

Pool Your Resources?

Hello potential Ronnie O’Sullivans and Rebecca Kennas! We are hoping to start a Playing for Fun Pool group to be held on Mondays from 11am to 1pm at the Lamb pub in Rustington.

Games are £1.50 so that’s 75p for each game assuming two are playing. Doubles work out even cheaper at just under 40p. Obviously the total cost will depend on how long games take, but I wouldn’t expect the cost to each player to be more than £4.00.

Anyone is welcome although it’s helpful if you know which end of the cue to hold! 

Please contact me at pscomley@sky.com to find out more or to join. I would hope to have up to twelve in the group assuming not everyone will come every week.

We would not play on Public Holidays. It would be nice, though not essential, to buy a drink at the bar or even stay for lunch afterwards. Coffee and tea are available. Cue up!

UKULELE GROUP

Over 20 members of our Ukulele Group performed at the South Downs Music Festival in Bognor in September, and joined in with many of the other local groups that were also appearing. We meet on the first and third Tuesdays of each month and if you’d like to give the ukulele a try you’d be most welcome to come along. Details are on our Group page or you can contact Frank on f.griffin@btinternet.com

Our Coffee Mornings are held on the second Tuesday of every month between 10.30am and 12.00 noon at the Creative Heart, 42 Beach Road, Littlehampton BN17 5HT. Coffee Mornings are a lively and informal gathering of members and non-members alike. We will have a fun table quiz and we will hear from some of our Group  Leaders about what is happening with their groups. Admission is £3.00 which includes your tea or coffee and a piece of cake, so please come along and join us and join in the fun. Free disc parking is available in nearby car parks. You will need new style parking disc available from town shops.
