This year we received just 17 completed quiz sheets to mark. All of the questions had been correctly answered by at least two people. Two people scored 59 out of 60 so in a random draw Tracey Pinchin was the winner and Andrew Ashenhurst was placed second. Three of the sheets scored 58½ so a random draw was made to allocate third prize to Chris Chantler. Congratulations to the winners who will receive cheques in the post and commiserations (but well done) to Jeff Bowen and Jean Baker who also got 58½ marks.
