Quiz News!
An outstanding performance by the Celtic Boys on Wednesday 18th March saw them take away first prize in the fortnightly quiz, winning by seven clear points. It was not just that they knew their popular and unpopular music, they were ahead of the competition on all topics. The performance was all the better in that they say off former champions and champions-elect Wizard as well as reigning champions, the Corner Boys. Pretenders T.B.M. weakened into fourth, with a teamtastic display by Teamtastic in fifth.
Overall, the leaderboard (available on the club noticeboard) shows that Wizard have an insurmountable lead in the Brains of the Bay with only one round remaining. T.B.M. are in second with Celtic Boys moving up into third.
The next and final quiz of the season will take place on Wednesday 1st April (no joke!). This is a dinner-quiz, with dinner at 7.00 for 7.30, and the quiz starting at 8pmâŠ..sharp! The Commodore will be in attendance to award the prizes and trophy on the night. Teams attending for dinner are asked to left the club know in advance so that they can prepare for the numbers.
