CLASS NEWS Throwim-away Leg. Thankyou Alex for your choice of this unusual book. The title Throwim-away Leg refers not to someone coping with an absent leg, but to several scientists coping very well with treks through the forests of New Guinea, assisted by local natives who are skilled at hunting. They are able to find, photograph and save the bones of various marsupials such as the tree kangaroo and types of very large rats that were thought to be extinct, as well as eating catches that were not required. We had our last meeting for the year on the 7th December. As the U3A were then in the process of moving, we decided to have our meeting at my home in Churchill. This worked out well and we had a good end-of-the-year afternoon tea, as everyone brought a plate of goodies. Over the next 2 months we will be reading a biography of Samuel Pepys. No doubt we will need the 2 months what with Christmas festivities, then the 386 pages of small print to consume.
Good reading to everyone. Olivia Jackson and Anne Ritchie. |
