What an excellent evening, with 41 people turning up, the chilli JUST held out for second helpings. Next year I am going to have to limit the numbers as I cannot get any more chilli in the pot! Here is a report from Mike Reed of the less than winning Jelly Baby team of Mike & Liz & Gari and Do Jones.
SHACC QUIZ 2017
The
adversaries for ShACC were again the HDLCC and they had 12 months and a
whole hill climbing season to prepare the 30 questions, because they
won last time. Plenty of time then………..
Yoland`s Chilli and muffins
were served to spice up proceedings before the competition started. All
good stuff! Teams of four and, as with so many things in life, my
success is based on choosing the best partners. Liz and I formed the
Jelly Babies with Gari & Do.
Our strategy was (advised by our
partners) to make sure we received a trophy but did not win because
none of us has time on our hands to set questions in the next 12
months. We could have done but felt it only fair not to win, next time
maybe. So the target became the other trophy and I am pleased to
announce that WE WON and I have the prized trophy to show standing in
the garage with a nice golden sheen to it as the plating takes hold. A
visitor said it was rust but I doubt it, a rusty prize? In fact our
team partners scored the majority of our points so a big vote of thanks
to them. Anyway congratulations to the HDLCC team who won and thanks to
those who attended and fort he raffle prize.
