We are trying to organise a Christmas Quiz after the debacle of the lockdown…..and we have folks! The Quiz will be held at The Fairway Public 
House, Gloucester Crescent, Wigston. The date: Tuesday 9th November and we advise that you arrive around 7:30 so as to find your seats, get your drinks and get the old brains working! There will be 50 questions, of a mixed variety, with 25 in the first half & 25 in the second half. There will be a half time break with a fun-time question for a prize and the main prize will be the 20-20 Voice Cancer trophy, a Voucher for a meal for 6 (venue undecided as yet) + £50 drinks money to go with the meal! The other prize is our famous set of 6 Wooden Spoons for whomever finishes last – much sought after are our 20-20 Spoons I can tell you! 🙂
The rules are simple, 6 players per team max, £5 per player & no mobile phones allowed, anyone spotted using a mobile during the quiz will see their team disqualified. There will be a raffle after the quiz and also a hilarious game of “STAND-UP-BINGO” where ‘last player standing‘ is the winner – all great fun. There will be a buffet available with plenty of crisps, nuts & snacks available from the bar too.
The sooner you apply for a team entrance the better as the 20-20 Christmas Quiz always fills up quickly! All you have to do to apply for a table is to email Phil on admin@2020voicecancer.org you can either pay up front or on the night, we don’t mind either way, but I can assure you of a great night! 🙂
The Fairway Public House has a massive car park and a full bar will be ready and waiting for all you thirsty quizzers – see you all there!
