quiz master David Brown, ably assisted by Rosemary Brown

The questions, as ever, were somewhat difficult and devious.  The participants, dedicated, hard-working and sharp as ever..

 

David and Rosemary Brown both created and set the questions, and kept proceedings in order.  The evening raised nearly £150, and (as ever) helped nudge our profile up a notch.
