60's Zoom Night - Jurassic Coast Branch

 



Well, February 2022 and we still have some COVID 19 restrictions in place. Although we could now all meet we have continued fortnightly branch Zoom meetings for catch ups and presentations. We missed organising a social event, so a 1960's dress up theme party was arranged.
 
Our Chair, Marjorie Bandy, organised a trivial pursuit style quiz based on 60's music, with our secretary Pat McKay, keeping score.

In between the quiz we ate and drank, more or less following the menu and drinks:

Pre-dinner drinks
Schooner of Sherry or Cinzano and Lemonade
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Prawn Cocktail or Grilled grapefruit topped with Maraschino Cherry

Cottage Pie with seasonal vegetables

Black forest Gateau or Sherry Trifle
~~~~~~~~
Coffee with after dinner mints and liqueurs

Wines
Mateus Rose or Liebfraumilch

 

It all became very exciting when we had to have a play off, with Judy Evans as the winner of a £25 gift voucher. Judy is obviously a quiz buff as she had previously won our Christmas quiz.


To finish the night off some dancing: the twist, swim, hand jive, locomotion and more. A few technical problems with the Youtube video loss of sound, but Wendy Jones stepped in with the music.

Another fun evening for the former and serving QA's and partners.
