Quiz Night Friday 25th January
Twenty four brave members of the Welsh Society braved the winter weather to venture to the Coleshill Village Hall on a dark night in January.
We arranged ourselves into 5 teams of between four and six people.
Mr Jonathan Pegler set the fiendish questions in 7 rounds with subjects such as General Knowledge, 2012, Quotations, Chilterns & London and a Welsh round.
Fish and chips arrived to great acclaim about 8:30pm and gave a brief break from the questions. Jonathan reassured us that the questions were really very easy, it was only finding the answers that was difficult!
Competition was fierce, with each team trying hard not to be last. After a challenge to the electronic scoring system and a re-count a team called ‘the Odd Group’ declared themselves the winners and rushed to claim the glory and prizes.
Quiz Winners – The Odd Group
We finished about 10pm and it was amazing how quickly the hall was cleared of tables and chairs with so many volunteers.
Thanks to Jonathan for all your hard work in preparing and running the quiz.
