About 20 turned up for a night of fun and frolic engineered by Rotary Central Melbourne's Roy Garrett who had a nice selection of questions that were NOT TOO HARD. The roll-up was Rotary 7, Bearbrass Probus 6, Sunrise Probus 3 and miscellaneous (WAGs) 4. Rotary thus wrested control of the night back from incumbents Bearbrass. Roy on one question about the parameters of Pi was challenged to get Pi to a substantial number of decimal places and after a minute, and without consulting his calculator, got it right to about 8 places. Well done. Although we think fellow engineer Alan Seale might have corrected him on one figure. Actually Alan and his intellectual superior Robyn won the night with a great core of 32 out of (we think) 56. The iron rule is that they who win create the quiz questions next time, which is Thursday October 8 5.30pm: are you listening Alan? Anyhoo a good fun night and we believe some alcohol was consumed. btw Roy says Grange Hermitage is made entirely from Shiraz grapes (1 point). We wouldn't know being mere plebs whose price point for our daily bottle is $14 max.
