U3A Monthly Friday Event – Why was the Shepherd Delighted?
July 25, 2025 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Why was the Shepherd Delighted?
A presentation by Bill Avenell.
‘Red sky at night …’ … ‘If the oak before the ash …’. Does it mean a thing?
We have all grown up listening to weather lore handed down over generations, but is there any real truth in any of it, and where has it all come from?
As a retired teacher of Geography, Bill has always been interested in the mixture of science and superstition behind those well known sayings. In this talk he will try to separate the two, and, where possible, give it a local Sussex slant.
Venue: Shoreham Centre Main Hall
Time: 2-3.30pm
Cost: Members £2.00. Non-members £3.50.
