On Monday I was chosen to be the new chairman of West Wolds U3A. The committee have been sounding me out for several months and it will be interesting to guide the organisation into the 21st century.

Tuesday I ran an IT Workshop helping people to develop their own websites and Wednesday I ran my first Ethics and Moral Dilemma group. I was concerned whether it was going to work but I needn't have worried because the discussions were lively and varied.

It ran into a few problems because somebody asked me afterwards that the U3A as a secular organisation shouldn't be singing Carols and I overheard someone say it was like "Karaoke at the old people's home". They weren't far wrong, definitely not my choice.

I had to drive the same route we used to take to the hospital for chemo and my daily visits to the hospice. Her bike was her favourite activity and she was never happier than when she was cycling the country lanes at one with nature. I suppose I shouldn't have been surprised that this would trigger a reaction but I found myself very wobbly through the rest of Friday and Saturday.

My current mantra is "Life goes on" and with that in mind I put up some Christmas lights outside and started to decorate the tree. All things pass...
