Sunday, 10th December 2023 - Concert followed by Dinner

Mave used to play the ukelele and joined the U3A Sparkling Ukes where she made lots of friends.  Those friendships came to include me as we often got together with them at the Bands in the Park concerts during the summer.  I am very happy that those friendships have continued since Mave left us in May. 

Today we got together for a Christmas concert by St Neots Concert Band, who we've seen several times and always enjoyed their music. This concert was held  in St Mary's Church, St Neots



And afterwards,  we went for a meal at the Buffolo mediterranean restuarant in St Neots.




I had a lamb kebab which was, probably, the tastiest kebab I've ever had



At one point during the meal, glasses were raised in Mave's memory - a lovely gesture on their part, which made me "well up". They're good people!

Friday, 8th March 2024 - HATFIELD WATER MILL

Today, the U3A Photography Group visited the Water Mill at Hatfield. Unfortunately any catering facilities they may have were not open today so we met in the nearby Tesco cafe for the almost essential coffee before going to the mill, ready for some photography.    The inside of the mill was lit by sodium lamps. They might be good for the eye but not for colour photography.  To avoid those problems, I processed these images in black & white and then added a sepia tint which I thought suited the subject. And finally, my personal favourite of the day ... Thanks for checking my blog   🙂 Den

Sunday , 4th February 2024 - Farewell Band Gang, Hello Band Crew

Image
Well, we went to the Anchor for lunch today as the Band Gang, had a very enjoyable meal, and then departed renamed as the Band Crew. Apparently the original name could somehow get confused with another "activity".  It's beyond me but if someone could explain it to me I'd be most grateful  😜 _____________________
