This year's Start of Year quiz saw us return to our regular venue, the Shamrock Club in Welwyn Garden City with a fabulous turn out 25 teams made up of 135 people. It was made all the more enjoyable with a wonderful buffet and a couple of games added in which helped raising £250 for Parkinson's UK.
Congratulations to Hats Off to Larry who led at the end of the first half but ended in second place just two points behind first time victors The Blazing Saddles.
Next year's date is already booked, it's going to be Saturday 6th January 2024.
Here are the final scores.
