Beverage ’n Banter
An excellent opportunity to meet other Lostwithiel area u3a members - both existing friends & new ones! Very informal, the "banter" is entirely up to you - a lovely social event!
"Beverage 'n Banter" will meet up on the first Monday in the months that alternate with our usual "Open Meetings" so in Feb/Apl/Jun/Aug/Oct/Dec etc
We meet at the Fowey Valley Hotel, Lostwithiel at 11.00 on the appropriate day - cost is just £3 per hd for refillable Tea/Coffee & crummy biscuits.
3rd February 2025
The first meeting of the year brought another good attendance & 3 new "members" - which is great!
We meet again on 7th April & invitations will be winging their way to you shortly!
2nd December 2024
Our "Xmas Special" with Annie Singer hosting & the addition of Mince Pies! Around 20 "revellers" were in attendance. Next meeting Monday 3rd February.
12th August 2024, 21st October 2025
Both these meetings took place as planned & were well attended. Our vice-Chair, Annie Singer hosted the latter get-together.
3rd June 2024
This proved to be a time when many of our "regulars" were either away themselves or entertaining family/friends themselves - so it was prudent to postpone this meeting. Next one is Monday 12th August as otherwise this will clash with "Carnival' week!
8th April 2024
Again a reasonable attendance with much gaiety & convivial conversation. Next meeting June 3rd
5th February 2024
29 attendees - a new record! Lots of banter 'n beverage together with big doses of FUN. We were pleased to welcome some new u3a Members & one "guest" who also "signed up" on the day.
Due to Easter, our next meeting is Monday 8th April - see you there!
4th December 2023
A great attendance - 24 being our "new record" - enjoyed a very lively morning with a real "buzz" in the decorated foyer of the Fowey Valley Hotel. Our merriment was "helped down" with not only complimentary Mince Pies but also Saffron cake - yummy!
Compliments of the Season to all our Members - see you at our next meeting on Monday 5th February.
2nd October 2023
Our vice Chair & group Coordinator, Annie Singer hosted this meeting & was pleased to catch-up with those able to attend.
Our next meeting is Monday 4th December & will include a special treat to put you in the festive mood!
21st September 2023
We met in August and our next meeting is on Monday 2nd October at 11.00am in the Fowey Valley Hotel, Lostwithiel as usual.
5th June 2023
Again a good attendance despite the lovely weather attracting family/friends down to stay with several of our members!
The next meeting is Monday 7th August - venue/time as before. See you there
3rd April 2023
Despite being the week leading up to Easter & several people away or entertaining friends/friends, we had a healthy attendance of 16. I was particularly pleased that this included several of our newest Members who joined us following our u3a Open Day!
Although only our second get-together, it's clear that new friendships are forming & folk are looking froward to our next meeting on Monday 5th June 2023 - again at Fowey Valley Hotel, Lostwithiel.
Update of 13th February 2023
We had an excellent attendance for our first meeting on 6th February at Fowey Valley hotel, Lostwithiel where 20 folks enjoyed each others company!
There was certainly no shortage of animated conversation &, together with copious coffee/tea & biscuits, we “launched” this new Group . We have 29 members signed up so far & have room for a few more as not everyone will be able to attend each meeting.
Our next “Beverage ’n Banter” meeting is on Monday 3rd April, again at Fowey Valley hotel &, don’t forget, follows our grand u3a “Open Day” on Monday 6th March, Church Rooms, Lostwithiel.
