UPDATE - 22nd December: Many thanks to those who attended and helped us raise £50 for this worthy cause. Attendances were depleted because of the appalling flu bug doing the rounds at the moment. Even Peter Cox, our organiser and scorer, had to bow out after bravely taking the PA system down to the pub for us. Get well soon! 
Many thanks to Bernice Walmsley for stepping into the breach and helping out with the raffle etc. and, as always, to Pat and Liz at the Boar's Head for hosting.
We'll be publishing details of winners, etc, as well as selected questions from the quiz in due course. Many thanks again everyone! - Dave Roberts
