WI Fish, Chip and Quiz Evening

Audlem WI Fish & Chip Quiz Evening- Open to all!

Apologies for this late advertisement for our WI Fish and Chips Quiz Evening, but I have been absent with permission from our WI President attempting to walk a variety of paths along the Camino de Santiago, and I now have the 'passport' and blisters to prove it!

The Camino de Santiago might be the only time in your entire life where you will deliberately follow crappy yellow spray painted arrows across an entire country and no one will think you are crazy! 

I mean imagine if you were back home and you told your friends that you found some spray paint markings under some bridges or on random trees & you wanted to see where they led.

They would definitely try to talk you out of it! But on the Camino, you search for them and start getting nervous when you don't see them after a while!

Also the Camino de Santiago must be the only event where you will burn 9 million calories a day hiking and come home a stone heavier! How? Perhaps, it is because the only things to do besides walking are eating & drinking! 

Every day you stop for a second breakfast before lunch, due to heat exhaustion. Then, there is the pilgrim's menu served everyday for 10 euros or less where you eat like Arnold getting ready for a Mr. Universe body building competition. Plus, with 95% of the Camino participating in Siesta, the only thing you have to do in the afternoons is eat and drink wine!

So as you can see it's almost a relief to anticipate a generous plate of fish and chips, beautifully cooked by George from our local chippy, combined with the skilful arts of our local quizmaster extraordinaire, Ralph Warburton, who will be taking a break from his scathing write ups on our village football team to enter the more hallowed and sedate interiors of the Scout and Guide Hall where he knows he will never be questioned on his answers as his word is law.

The 'piece de resistance' of the evening will be that you can bring your own drink!

Remember your body needs six to eight glasses of fluid daily, straight up or on the rocks and we should never drink water as it is known to rust pipes.

This wonderful opportunity of an evenings entertainment will take place on Thursday 25th October starting at 7.00 pm in the Scout and Guide Hall. Tickets are £7.50 each and you will be placed into a team of four, so those of us with no friends will be guaranteed a slot!

There will also be a raffle and prizes will be awarded to the lucky winners. Members of Audlem WI will be prancing around, mainly in clothes, ensuring everyone is happy and will mop up any spilt drinks and possibly tears of disappointment!

The quiz will be open to everyone, so please, do come along and enjoy a great evenings entertainment.

Tickets will be available from Anne Hollins or Stephanie Richardson 811182.

We look forward to seeing you all there.
