U3A

Still loving University of the Third Age (U3A) . . .

This morning was the first session of a new group: 'Europe into the 20th century' with a talk on the development of Romantic Ballet ~ right up my street! 

This afternoon: the Shakespeare group where we each chose two sonnets to read and then discuss.  I loved Shakespeare even at school ~ we had a teacher whose subject was really Hockey (which I detested!) but she also taught English to the younger forms.  I loved her English lessons in direct proportion to how much I hated the Hockey sessions.  She introduced us to A Midsummer Night's Dream in Year 8 and took the class to a production at the Open Air Theatre in Regents Park ~ I am forever grateful.  

Otherwise I have been busy trying to catch up on emails (they seem to have a life of their own!), tidying and making beds ready for the arrival of Ka and To tomorrow.  Which will be nice.

Back soon
