Talk by Andy Thomas plus social gathering for Midhurst u3a and visitors.

A celebratory history of Christmas

Mid-December has long been a time for rejoicing, yet Christmas traditions have splintered into many guises – even banned by the Puritans. We learn how, in spite of modern commercialism, Christmas has survived and still has meaning. Andy Thomas will be a familiar speaker to many for his talks on Crop Circles and Lewes Bonfire Nights.

Come at 2pm for a cup of tea/coffee and a festive biscuit, and to find out about the many activities of Midhurst u3a (for anyone not in full-time employment).
