On Saturday 12th April FAA held a Quiz Night at the Black Pearl restaurant  in Ta’ Xbiex which turned out to be a successful, very enjoyable evening with a turnout of around 80 keen participants.  

The evening began with a couple of rounds of Bingo to warm things up, then an hour’s quiz, and finally a raffle with loads of prizes such as perfumes from Chemimart, books from Agenda, toiletries from Avon, a printer and calculators from Avantech and lovely vases from Longbow Ltd . Wine for the Quiz winners was provided by Charles Grech Ltd while Marsovin kindly provided the wine for the guests. Although the quiz questions were not evironment –based, many teams plunged into the spirit  enthusiastically, christening their teams ‘DCC’, ‘ODZ’ and ‘Mistra Gate’! The quiz was contested in good spirit but very keenly, especially when a tie-break had to be held for two teams who tied for the third place.  

A lovely light meal consisting of bruschetta, followed by a salami, salad and cheese and biscuit platter was served during the quiz hour, washed down by a glass of wine and rounded off by a choice of delicious desserts. The Black Pearl proved to be a perfect venue for this fund-raising event, providing a really congenial atmosphere and easy parking.  

Needless to say the event’s success was guaranteed by the generosity of our sponsors, the organisers who worked so hard as well as by those who attended, many of whom have already asked for a repeat.  

We invite our members and all those who attended to give us their suggestions for future fundraising activities.
