Quiz Masters

Not only did Blaser Mills enter a team in this year’s Menzies Annual Charity Quiz to raise funds for the White Lodge Centre in Chertsey – we won it!

The annual quiz, organised by Egham-based accountancy firm Menzies LLP, saw thirty teams drawn from local businesses battle it out for the coveted Menzies Charity Quiz Cup at the Thames Club in Staines.

With tension mounting as the rounds passed, the Blaser Mills team of Jonathan Lilley, Alka Kharbanda, Dave Matthews and Barry French were still very much in contention going into the last round, where a perfect 10 saw them edge out the Barclays Bank team by 1 point.

The winning question – “How tall is a smurf?” – had the team stumped until Dave Matthews somewhat sheepishly admitted that he knew the answer – “nearly 3 apples high!”

Perhaps more importantly, the Quiz Night raised £2,935 for the White Lodge Centre which provides activities and opportunities for disabled people of all ages as well as their families and carers.
