On Saturday 14t May we did a line dancing display at Littledale Festival, Towerhill, Kirkby. This was the eleventh year of this popular festival and during the afternoon our ‘line dancers’ did the u3a proud with a set of 3 dances culminating in an easy dance lesson, as the audience joined in, which was great fun.
We ended to rapturous applause and thanks from the audience and performers.
Many thanks to all – Hilary

Haskayne Circular 15 May
On a fine, sunny morning, a large group of twenty seven walkers met at the Ship Inn in Haskayne. There was a choice of walks on offer. A short one along the canal and back to the pub, and a longer one with the option of an added loop. While the “short” walkers set off along the canal towpath, the rest of us made our way along Rosemary Lane and across the main Southport road into School Lane.
