Quiz Update
Quiz update
As promised, spring has arrived and the flowers bloomed at the quiz on Wednesday, 4th March. For one bed of roses, namely Stars of the Sea, this nearly resulted in a first win of the season, but their green fingers could not get them all the way to the flower show and they were pipped on the line by the denizens of Gardeners’ World that are Enchantress. This was Enchantress’s second win of the series and puts them in 4th place overall in the league table. T.B.M. won some valuable points by coming 3rd, ahead of Wizard, Chancellors, and the Celtic Boys. Flying starts by Tango and Celtic Warriors could not be maintained, and F-15 maintained their improved form.
There are only two quizzes left this season – 18 March and 1 April (final dinner). Competition for the overall Brains of the Bay title is still strong, with Wizard holding a lead over T.B.M. that, adjusted for discards, is closer than it seems. A good showing by T.B.M. in the home straight could bring the competition down to the wire, although a win for Wizard in either of the last two quizzes would probably seal the deal. There is also a tight competition for third between Celtic Boys and Enchantress. Stars of the Sea move up to 8th. The overall leaderboard is available on the club noticeboard.
The next quiz is on Wednesday 18th March at 8pm sharp! Two notable events that will take place between then and now are the races at Prestbury Park and St. Patrick’s Day (not to mention World War III). I wonder if any of those will feature in the questions…
