Oh what a night!

We had a fantastic time at the Friends of Shrewsbury Park Quiz last night, at Shrewsbury House!

Our fantastic Quizmasters, Dee and Geoff tested our general knowledge to the max. From Shrewsbury House Community Centre‘s resident Improshrews, we enjoyed Erik and John playing out scenes from comedy shows through the ages!

Thanks to everyone who came – the big winners with the craziest team name ever, was: Peanut Butter Giggle Sticks

The biggest losers: The Wooden Spoons

Our thanks also to the staff at Shrewsbury House, who were so welcoming – especially the reception and bar staff who were kept nice and busy.

Want to come and join us at the next quiz? Keep watch – we’ll post the date asap!

Quiz night a great success!

Our latest quiz took place on Friday 17 June at Shrewsbury House.

Another sold-out event, the keen quizzers were treated to a first-class show by Dee and Geoff,  joined by two members of the improv group, The ImprovShrews, which meets at Shrewsbury House. They were called in for the films round, when they gleefully acted out some key scenes from ‘on the waterfront’ ‘whatever happened to baby jane’ and most memorably, ‘Grease’!

Our stand out winners on the night were a team of just 2 members – trouncing all the six member quiz teams.

Thanks go to Shrewsbury House staff, including the wonderful bar team, Sonia Maloney, the ever-excellent Geoff and Dee.

We can’t wait for the next one!

Quiz On The Hill #2 A Success!

Our Second Quiz on the Hill held at Shrewsbury House last night (9/11/18) was even better than the first held in February.

Quizmasters Geoff and Dee set the bar very high and caught us out with some fiendishly clever questions. From ‘cats and other animals’ to ‘news this week’ they kept us on our toes.

The winners after eight rounds were Team MSP who received some mini bottles of red, and looked delighted!

The scoreboard at the end of the evening looked a bit like this:

We look forward to the next quiz, so watch out MSP, we’re after your crown!

We’ll let you know how much we raised through the tickets and raffle when we have added it all up.
