The Horticultural Society has had to postpone the annual Bob Matthews Quiz which was due to take place on 17th October. The quiz will take place next spring, so plenty of time over the winter to pour over those trivia books!

Bob Matthews Quiz a great success
Posted in Events, Gardens, Pub, Quiz, Societies on Monday October 20, 2014| Leave a Comment »
The Horticultural Society asked that we thank everyone that made this year’s Quiz such a success, particularly the Matthews family for their on going support, but also Bill for setting the quiz and Janet for hosting the event.
The new Trophy is pictured to the right, and it will be permanently housed in the Pub so that it does not get chance to hide itself this year
With ten teams the pub was full and a good time was had by all. The winning team was the Khaki Campbells.
