2nd TSAC quiz night
The first 50th anniversary quiz went well so a second one called for. This time the focus would be away from diving and more of a general quiz, although the odd diving question would slip in.
The same format as before was used with two sets of picture questions, a music round and several different categories including general knowledge, current events and who said what?
In addition there were sport prizes and a tie breaker, can you answer it?
Which country has the most islands in the world? Answer below
The two picture rounds can be seen below. We had a minor hiccup when the connection for the phone couldn’t be found, however, Julie, the John Alker secretary, stepped up and downloaded Spotify (other music apps are available), allowing the playlist to be quickly added.
As it was the DOs shout everyone got their first drink on the committee and the prizes that followed were all drink tokens, it kept it easy.
On the evening a hotly contested contest was won by the new members of the club team ‘Trainee’ with 82 points, a judicious use of their joker gave them double points on their best round.
The final act of the evening was to give out our first TSAC milestone certificate to Paul Moore. The certificate has been introduced to recognise divers who has developed and achieved a ‘milestone’ number of dives (50, 100, 500, 1000, 1500…….).
These certificates will continue to be presented each year to divers who have achieved one of those targets.
