The members of the Garden Club turned out in force for the Dec meeting, carrying a wide selection of ‘goodies’ for afternoon tea. Quizmaster Ian had prepared a four part quiz comprising of a photo page of celebrity gardeners, a music section related to gardening, anagrams of flowers, and an old Mastermind gardeners’ quiz. Teams of six were hastily grouped and everyone put on their thinking caps while tucking into the food. Val, the chairman had chosen bottles of wine for the winning team, and seasonal poinsettias and cyclamen for the raffle prizes.
