Thank you to all who came to the supper and quiz night at the end of March. It
was a sell-out evening, and raffle prizes were won, supper was eaten, lots (lots!)
of wine was drunk, 80 questions were answered more or less (actually, rather
less!) correctly, there was a sudden death play-off, and £674 was raised for
church funds. Everyone was rubbish at geography.
