SUMMARY:General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:\nAll members are invited to attend to hear from the Committee and ask any questions or raise topics of interest.\n\n\n\nThere will be a presentation from 11 am to 12 pm\n\n\n\nHighlights and Anecdotes: My Twenty Years of Giving Presentations to U3A Members by Peter Atkinson\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThroughout the last 20 years, an important feature of the Jávea U3A has been a group of members settling down to be entertained, informed or bored by a speaker giving a lecture, talk or presentation.  I have been involved from the get-go (my membership number is 87) and I have given more than 50 presentations at monthly General Meetings, to the History Group, and to the Traveller’s Tales Group.  Angela may have given more but I believe that no-one else comes close.\n\n\n\nAt the General meeting on May 30, I shall look back at the pleasures of speaking to U3A members, and the pitfalls, the things that can go wrong and sometimes do.  A constant feature is that U3A audiences are always friendly and supportive; I have never been heckled (yet).  And they are generally attentive; I have seen some sleeping, but I have never heard any snoring.\n\n\n\nI shall reprise several minutes of highlights from each of about half a dozen of the talks that I have given at monthly General Meetings over the years.  By “highlights”, I mean segments that I found to be particularly interesting or entertaining when doing the research.  I hope you’ll agree. \n\n\n\nI shall talk about public entertainment in Roman Spain; tour the Alhambra in Granada; explore the symbolism in Picasso’s Guernica; dip into the history of Anglo-French relations; and take a bike ride across northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela.      \n
