It's that time again, quiz time!! This week the group split into two teams with Caprice being Quiz Master. Four rounds consisting of Geography, Science & Nature, The Arts and General Knowledge. Tonight's session started with Caprice asking each person to make a paper aeroplane. After a test flight the team were to choose and plane and nominate a team member to fly it. The furthest plane would score the team five points. After some tricky rounds The Loose Women nominated Daryl to fly their plane and the other team nominated Sophie to fly their plane. Both planes were impressive but The Loose Women's plane won as it made it halfway across the room. They took the lead with 35/45 with the other team scoring 29/45. A very close score indeed! Well done to everyone involved, it was lots of fun this evening. What will Caprice make them do next month? Someone mentioned who could make the best hat? We will join the Abbeyfield residents next month Monday 12th May.

It's that time again! GoodGym's Quiz at Abbeyfield Retirement Home!

The groups split into three teams, Millie, Sophie and James Joined "The Loose Women" Emma and Harry joining "The Inadequates" And Eleanor, Mohammed and Daryl joining the team "We Four Kings" With the Quiz master tonight being Caprice, tonight's session also marked Caprice's 400th Good Deed. Yay! The quiz consisted of four rounds, History, Maths, General knowledge and Science and Nature. They even had a Picture Round which consisted of naming the famous landmarks. Tonight was tough, all teams worked hard but "We Four King's" and "The Inadequates" both top teams scoring 50/58!! A tie breaker question was set with the closest team to the answer for the win. Miraculously both teams were Four points out! What are the chances? It was too close to call so Caprice decided to make both teams The Winner. Well done to both teams, what cracking scores!! We will return again next month, We hope to see you there!

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.
