A Visit to Kent
2006 Heritage Group tripTo Kent we did a go Four day visit to dockyard and ship Going thro’ the Submarine so low We all got through the hatch doors This was just one of the brilliant tours Day 2 took us to Canterbury Cathedral Awesome in height, Gothic arches and spires The murder of Beckett so bloody and brutal A tomb of the Black Knight behind the Quires Leeds Castle was our destination on day 3 Rain didn’t dampen the spirits of the U3A As they navigated the Maze, Gardens and Aviary Within the Castle there was much to see, a bonus was the “Autumn Gold” flower display Thank you to Margaret and Grace for organising the trip to Kent. Where are we going for the next event??

On the 21st September we embarked on a Bowling Bonanza to ‘Cheshire View’ at Christleton near Chester. I can say without hesitation it was a “Purrfec” Day thanks to the efficient organisation, this together with the lovely sunny weather resulted in the 30 strong group being in a fun mood all day. The Cheshire View gave us excellent service with morning coffee, a buffet lunch, an afternoon ‘cuppa’ and in the evening a tasty well-cooked dinner. In the Bowling competition Sheila Burke and Margaret Dodd were joint ‘Top Ladies’ and Dave Smith was ‘Top Man’ and they and others received prizes. After Dinner Margaret Meekley gave Ken & Edna a well deserved vote of thanks and then we were homeward bound, still lively enough to sing ‘Happy Birthday’ to Sheila and Brian who I am sure will remember their 2006 birthdays as a very delightful day.
