Intro
The branch meetings at Lancaster have become great fun and we always try to do something a little different. We have had Easter Eggs, raffles and Christmas gifts in the past. Its time to get back on track and so we have put together 3 parts to a quiz. All you have to do is email your answers, or send in a hard copy to our branch secretary before Friday midday, 17th December (late entries cannot be accepted). The top 5 quiz entries will be entered into a draw and you stand to chance to win a Christmas themed hamper carefully selected by the quiz masters. You must be available to be flexible to collect the prize in person.
You MUST be a fully paid member of Unite to enter. Quizmasters decision is final.
Thanks to Jess, Eamon and Ian for putting the quiz together!
