 I should like to pay credit to the enormous effort put into this event by David and Robin, who was Quizmaster.  Patti and Keith gave essential support with refreshments.  Although I didn’t participate, I was around during the event and can report that there was a great atmosphere of friendship and pleasure generated by the occasion which was attended by 12 teams of 4 from four Phoenix Clubs in the Stafford area.  Jeremy
