Does anyone belong to their local group of U3A? I'm thinking of joining. My local group seems to have a lot of interesting activities.

Any opinions?

Thanks, carole, for your input. Some positive things there then?
Our nearest one is quite a way from me :-(
My friend's a Potter Tilly and as such works very much on her own. She's not the most outgoing person in the World but joined U3A and goes to 3 or 4 of their clubs and loves it. She does Swimming, painting and the Scrabble group and something else I can't remember. Nothing to lose in my opinion, if you don't like it you can stop.

I organise a lunch club every month at a different venue in the forest, we have up to 60 members. We also play skittles and have a pub lunch each month. We have play reading, scrabble, mah Jong, nature groups, 3 levels of walking groups, guitar, French, crafts, computers, photography, local history. As you can see lots to do. Go for it it will change your life, it did ours.
My friend learned to speak French fluently at U3A. Great organisation.
