What a great night at The Sycamore. The questions set by Don and Audrey were varied and fun. Some tested the brain unless you were the Euro Team with Amanda, Graham, Mike & Ben, but others were straightforward so no-one felt left out. There was one famous person present, Overend Watts from Mott the Hoople. He is walking from Lands End to John O’Groats, and valiantly joined one of the teams. The winning side were The Euro Team well ahead on points. Five teams participated and £45 was raised. What was so great was the atmosphere, everyone was there to enjoy themselves but it would have been even nicer to see more people there.

Yes – a great night. Don and Audrey did an excellent job, and I’m in no way biased by being on the winning team, honest!
The raffle also went well – Nia seemed delighted with the Smash Hits 1980s book, but I can’t remember where the cranberry body butter ended up….?
A pleasure to meet Mr Watts from Mott The Hoople, who are fondly remembered by many of us of a certain age. Hints were also being dropped as to a possible band reunion in the future – so remember where you heard it first!

Yesterday, it was announced that the original line-up of Mott The Hoople would be reforming, for a couple of dates at the Hammersmith Apollo in October.
