QUIZ NIGHT: One or two new faces when the weekly quiz took place at the Gate Inn on Sunday night. Same Question Master as last week, John Jones, but different questions, and just as difficult to answer. Despite this handicap, teams were in good form on the night, with high scores all around the room.
This continued in the second half, after contestants had eaten their fill of the quiz supper courtesy of the resident chef Dean Slater. The event culminated in a tie-break situation with two teams on 50 points, the team known as “The man is back” being declared as outright winners after the usual scrutiny checks. Congratulations all!
Another quiz next week at the usual starting time of 8:00pm.
