Heard on Radio 4

Heard on Radio 4 this morning, 21st April, – Mark Tully‘s final ‘Something Understood’. He included some thoughts of T S Elliot which I found very relevant to U3A (although he only mentions men!).
 
Old Men – the Cycle of Life
It’s about not being bitter or angry about the things that did not happen in one’s life. Old men should be explorers, there are still new things to explore about old age and positively to embrace the things that are changing as we grow older. It’s something that, at 52, he is beginning to think about.

Fancy a walk?

 Fancy a walk in this lovely Spring weather? Have a look at the link below - there are lots to choose from - most of them are not too far away - have a look at the videos - lots of wildlife to find - and, if the weather is fine and sunny - a breath of fresh air. - April 2019
