QUIZ NIGHT 2018
What a great evening - we had 11 teams and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves, none more so than one certain table who shall remain nameless - lot of barracking of the poor question master (who was just trying his best !), drinking & eating.
Below is a slideshow of the event - with a few apt captions to some of the photos.
THE RESULTS in order were :
175 THE INDECISIVES
168 THE TVAA (Thames Valley Air Ambulance)
165.5 NORFOLK'N CHANCE
163 FNBBQ
162 GO 2 THE FOOTBALL
159 POSH CHEESE BALLS
155.5 WAKE ME UP BEFORE YOU GOZO
151.5 SNACK ATTACK
151 SNOW BLOWERS
135.5 SECKK
122 INTERNATIONAL + 2
Thanks to everyone who helped organise and run the evening ;
Glenn Hawkins for preparing the questions and organising all the paperwork
Dave Evans for impersonating Glenn on the night (only a few mishaps !)
Dave Miners & Barry Primmer for organising and serving the hot chilli and baked potatoes
Mark Toal for his excellent assistance with collecting the scores and marking them up on the master board
Steve Wilkinson for organising the bar
Louise McAlister for manning the bar throughout the evening
Andy Chapman for providing the PA system and booking the Scout Hall
Karen Silkstone for politely putting the question master right when he had a "mishap"
and everyone who helped set up the hall and clear up at the end of the evening - almost all the above and a few others too.
We hope to see you ALL again next year - provisional date is FRIDAY 1st MARCH 2019.
NB: We had 11 teams and possibly could have squeezed 3 more in - so next year it will be a maximum of 14 tables - book early !

Our QUIZ NIGHTs have been a great success over the past 5 years with numerous teams participating in a fun packed evening. Glenn Hawkins has conducted the proceedings in his usual efficient manner, especially when controlling a few of the more vociferous teams, and has been ably supported by his lovely and even more efficient (and more beautiful) wife, Mel.
The food, has been expertly prepared and cooked by Master Chef Winner (in his dreams), Dave Miners, assisted by various volunteers, none more so than last year - The Gnome, Barry Primmer. We hope you will enter this year, CONFIRMED DATE : Friday 2nd March 2018, put the date down in your diary now. It is very much a social evening for the officials and parents alike and is not out to raise money - this is reflected in the cost (just £6 per person including food - cheapest Quiz Night in Cholsey) and the very reasonably priced drinks. This year, sadly Glenn is away on business but has set the questions for Dave Evans to conduct the proceedings as question master. On behalf of everyone who has attended previous Quiz Nights, thank you so much, and we look forward to welcoming you again in 2018.
