A good days
ringing – we got all quarters.
On the way back to the caravans we stopped by the local Chinese to get some dinner. Tonight we did Tim's quiz. We were in three teams - Helmetdales, Wallies and JWs. There were 5 rounds - guess the celebrity/presenter by listening to their voice, a round on Shropshire facts, a round based on Doves guide! (Ben showed his true geekyness during this round!!), guess the tool Tim was using in his garage by listening to sounds! and name the cathedral from photos. Team Wallies won, then Team Helmetdale and the JWs came last.
Later on Ben came back over from their caravan sporting the merkin made out of doughnuts malted fur we had made for him 18 months before!!! We had no idea he had actually kept it!!! Jo and Ken also tried it on!!
