Curly Christmas Quiz, 12 December 2024
We had a fabulous evening last Thursday at the Curly Christmas Quiz, we had a really good attendance & it was lots of fun. Some self confessed chocoholics were a little shocked to find they didn’t recognise all the chocolate bar cross-sections in the Chocolate Round, it was determined that much more research is needed in this area….
The winners on the night were:

1st Prize-Nikki Dick winning a CCRC Calendar & £20 Voucher
2nd Prize-Trish & Emma winning a CCRC Calendar & £15 Voucher
3rd Prize-Maggie & Jerry Stephens winning a CCRC Calendar & £10 Voucher

Well done everyone, and a big thank you to Carol Johnstone, Aly Clayton, & Heather Driscoll for their excellent planning & organisation, & for bringing everyone together.

This was our second year of the Christmas Quiz, & we very much look forward to next year.
