The Quiz Night

The night was a fundraiser for the school Helen teaches at, and was organised by the parents. They did a fantastic job - there were lots of prizes though I didn't win any of them, and our table ended up scoring in the middle group, so no joy there either.

The range of questions was very broad and there was only one answer that I disagreed with. They asked for the literal meaning of Frere Jacques, but gave the answer as Brother Jack, rather than Brother James.

They used technology very cleverly, using a computer and a data projector to display answers and frequent updates on the scores.

I will be interested to hear how much money they raised.
