GELOTOLOGY (AKA Jellytots)
THE MEMBERSHIP LIST IS NOW OPEN and the first meeting took place on Thursday 2nd March. We are meeting once a month.
This is a humorous group with a serious purpose and depends on having like minded members who like to laugh and want to feel healthy.
Gelotology (from the Greek γέλως gelos "laughter") is the study of laughter and its effects on the body, from a psychological and physiological perspective. Its proponents often advocate induction of laughter on therapeutic grounds in alternative medicine.
JELLYTOT members will bring anything that has tickled them to the meeting and be tickled (metaphorically) themselves!
Our thanks go to Barnsley U3A for inspiration, whose Jellytots have taken this art-form to a new (and lower?) level. (Follow the link below to see what I mean!)

The next meeting is to be arranged at a date and time to suit the existing members.
Contact Derek Hoskins for more information about the group.
PS
A German scientist from Argentina, after an expensive and lengthy research project, has discovered that people with insufficient brain activity read pages like this with their hand on the mouse.
