The November session was an easy one, with a more than usually festive afternoon tea at Marcus and Kirsten's and the accustomed cheerful conversation with a hint of mutual congratulation on a year of useful tasks achieved.
Jane and Bill kindly gave up their slot so that in late October we did a collective good deed , working in the garden of an injured U3A member. With our contact, Kathy Izard, pitching in as well (and Lois staggering by between medical checks!), we had a large set of helpers who pruned, weeded and mulched.

About the Garden TeamA band of enthusiastic gardeners gathers once a month for an afternoon at each member’s garden in rotation. The working bee uses each members skills and abilities to achieve about six hours effect in an hour and a half. Then we rest on our laurels with tea provided by the host and a home-baked and/or healthy plate from the visitors. We head home a little fitter and inspired, often with a new cutting or garden tip. Meeting Times2nd and 5th Mondays
2 to 4 pm Meet at members' gardens by turn. (If the 2nd Monday is a public holiday, the garden team often meets on an alternate day. Information about changes is included in the newsletter) Convenor and contact detailsElspeth Maconachie
