Following the quiz, the Food and Drink Group provided an excellent buffet of canapes and cake. It was a very enjoyable and challenging morning, followed by food for thought.

The next Coquetdale open meeting will be on February 20, when the Art Appreciation Group will give a presentation.

Non-members of the U3A are most welcome to attend for a £2 donation. All open meetings are at 10.30am, in the Jubilee Institute.

The answers to the quiz questions mentioned are EL Gombrich, The Salmon Inn and HM The Queen.
