Thanks for class reminders, Ray. Apologies, can't zoom the Esther but surely hope to join in on Hebrews.
I, for one, can't imagine how yr email could be regarded as offensive - it was fascinating. I thought the skeletons all looked rather jolly, jumbled together, totally flouting any social distancing dictates. I'd hoped to comment earlier but unplanned stuff can change the direction of yr day.
Some of those cheerful corpses may well be ancestors of mine, since, so far as l know, my forebears were almost exclusively Anglo Saxon and Scandi.
It seems the Danes, Swedes, Finnish, Russians and other people groups have vied for that area for hundreds of years. Since official historybook dates can often just be a convenience (eg AD410 = the Romans vacated Britain), l guess land hungry, battle hunting Scandinavian farmers could have gone a-wiking elsewhere long before they set fire to Lindisfarne and 'officially' started the Viking era.

G'day all,

An email from U3A just arrived advising that they are further opening up all classrooms for Term 1 2021.? Room 4 will have seating for 15.? I am assuming that they think that the CCP-virus vaccine will be available.? Quite frankly, I am a bit confused about which direction to take and would appreciate any guidance that you might provide.? I will likely be moving house in December or January and whatever transpires may affect my decision-making.
I sincerely apologise if my PowerPoint on the Viking ships offended anyone. I was so excited about finding ancestors like that that I didn't consider all aspects. At least I am now motivated to perhaps add my Family History course back to the U3A schedule in Term 1 if we decide to go in-person then.? So once again, if sorry is appropriate, I apologise.
