The 2009 Quiz Night

The quiz night went off very well. Everyone I talked to had a fantastic time, although I found it hard to understand one or two of them by the end of the night (and it's not because I'm hard of hearing).

The raffle was a big wow as expected, hardly surprising as the top prize was a 4 person voucher to visit a massive list of major attractions on the mainland, worth an estimated £700. But the overall prize list was so huge that it was bound to be a big attraction.

With two very generous sponsors this year - Barclays and Specsavers - we already know that the profits will smash the previous record, but we'll have to wait to get the final figures in. We can't thank them enough.

All in all a really successful night and already people are asking if we can have another one. Patience, patience.

Thanks go to all those who gave including:

Specsavers
Barclays
Cimandis - for supplying the all the cheese, pate and trimmings.
Le Riche Group - for donating all the fresh French sticks.
