It was nice to have ten Goodgymers meet at the care home this month for the quiz ,plus James and Chloe brought Goodgyms new recruit along there baby daughter which was nice to see plus the residents loved to see her.It was nice to be able to have Three teams. I must thank Keith for doing a round which was pub names cricket where if the name of the pub was an animal you had to guess how many legs the animal or animals had,this was fun.In total we had 4 rounds,Keiths round a picture round a spelling round plus a round on sweets.Everyone enjoyed themselves which is what its all about.The scores where very close,The Loose Women had 29, No Idea had 31,but the winners where The Outsiders with 34 so it was all very close.Thank you all for coming along and making it a good evening.

Fourteen, yes, you are reading this right, fourteen Goodgymmers turned up at Abbeyfield for another, obviously very popular, quiz night. The 7 Abbeyfield residents that joined us were thus slightly outnumbered. But whether two to one or not: fun was had by all…. that stayed awake! Valentine’s dingbats were followed by a round of geography, a round of general knowledge and a music round. And if you didn’t know this before, you now know that agapornis is a love bird, a very important fact if you’re the twitching kind. And a bit of knowledge of French isn’t amiss either when baiser and galettes make an appearance. And musical talent in abundance judging by the crooning along to Frank Sinatra, Dusty, Elvis, and “who’s that?”… Another successful quiz night, much appreciated by the Abbeyfield residents.

Daryl, Caprice, Eleanor, Janet, Chloe (plus 1 in a huge tum), Keith and Lea turned up at the old people’s home. I think, Lea was casing out the joint for when she needs it in a few years time… the rest was raring to go. We were in the lounge as there were five residents, so the group was fairly small. Caprice, our quizmaster, provided us with a sheet with drawings representing sayings. Out of the blue came a white elephant as top banana trying to turn back time, at the same time as the cash cow put all the eggs in one basket and its money where its mouth was, with the bad apple ringing the bell in the limelight while sitting on the fence and letting the cat out of the bag, and the hot potato moving like lightning while jumping out of the page onto the numberplate, I think! 🤣 Then on to even more serious business: geography, nature, and 2 rounds of general knowledge. Right, would you have known what to give the person in a French office, who is asking for a “trombone”?!?! Yes, of course, a paperclip 🤔🙃🤗!!! Anyway, the top team being Eleanor, Janet and two ladies. And the second and third team didn’t do too badly either. What a fount of knowledge Goodgymmers are!
