It is quiz time again on Tuesday 11th March!
Hope all is well with you and hope you can join us for this years quiz?
The event takes a lot of planning by our Quizmaestro, the unflappable Barry Winkleman, who will be setting the questions again this year. Assisted by the Galley Club Team.
Please can you reply to [email protected] to let us know whether you are coming along, tables are steadily booking up and we hope to see you there.
The date is: Tuesday 11th March starting at 6:15pm.
Details needed:
· Team name:
· Team members:
· Your choice of food - basically, either bangers and mash or vegetarian option.
The cost per team of 4 is £70 or per person £17.50. (unfortunately, costs have risen).
All you need to do is put a team of 4 together, then email Mark Gedye [email protected] to book your place.
If you are booking by yourself, we will be happy to add you a team with other likeminded individuals. Where necessary, we will be happy make up full teams if you are adrift.
The quiz will be held in the music room of THE WATER RATS 328 GRAY’S INN ROAD, KING’S CROSS, LONDON WC1X 8BZ
If you have any other dietary requirements, do please let us know so The Water Rats can cater for you properly.
Hope to see you soon.

Are you thinking of publishing a book?

I have just published my guide to hopefully give you tips and ideas on you publishing journey

With over 40 years of experience within the Publishing, Project Management
and Printing sectors, predominantly within the book publishing arena as well
as all forms of print production.

Mark was approached by several authors to see whether he could help them with their manuscripts, which led to the creation of this unique publishing service and through this book can hopefully share my self-publishing experience.

Now available via Amazon.

Love this cartoon.

Many people I speak to say they love the touch and feel of a book and Kindle or eBooks are not quite the same.

What do you think?

Please note that there is no car parking at the church at all, so the best idea is to park in either the Tesco car park just down the High Street from the church (0.1 miles away) or the Manor Country Park car park, which is roughly the same distance from church in the other direction.
