Three Goodgymers were met by the lovely Vicky for our monthly quiz. It looked like it would be a very quiet quiz but ended up with two teams of four and one more resident turned up for the final question. First off, the teams were challenged to name the authors in the picture round. After that, their knowledge of all things May was tested: birthstones, star signs, famous Mays and events in May. The teams were very evenly matched after two further rounds of general knowledge with Daryl, Janet, Irvine and David coming out on top.

We walked the short distance from the triangle to the care where we meet up with Paul who has just come back from 6 weeks in Asia.Before we started the quiz Vicky who is a 101 wrote us a poem which goes like this.On every second Monday,of each month throughout the year, Regardless of the weather,Our good Gymers do appear,Armed with many questions, And pen and paper too,Are so helpful with the questions,When we don't have a clue,So we thank you dear good Gymers, For the effort that you make,And the time you spend in giving us,A pleasant welcome break. By Vicky 101. That was so touching when she read it out. Back to the quiz we had a table top round where they had to guess the country from the outline then there was 30 general knowledge questions the scores where out of 39 the winners were the Dimwits with 23 second was the Smart Asses with 20.5 so it was very close.The evening was very enjoyable we look forward to next time .
