Annual Photo Quiz
28 members of our Medium Walks Group recently took part in our City Centre Photo Quiz. This has become an annual fixture for our January walk and this year we had 4 teams who each set off with a list of 26 streets and 28 small photos, the object being to locate each of the building features pictured. Some of these are quite small and can be 3 floors up in some cases.
This year, the weather was less cold, but also slightly damp after the start, and could have been a problem for writing down the locations; we had pencils, so we were prepared. One team suffered a slight delay when they found that their chosen Wetherspoons, for planning their route (and coffee), was closed all week!
Mark Jackson was in charge of the winning team, pictured, with 17 features located, and unusually we needed two tiebreaks to decide the team placings.
As in previous years, we retired to the Three Crowns pub opposite the Theatre Royal for a buffet lunch, while our organisers worked out the scores. Thanks go again to John Saunders and David Jackson for all the organisation and planning involved.
Our next walk will be on Monday, 16th February, and will be another City walk, taking in areas around the City centre which people may not be familiar with. New members are always welcome, just make contact via the tab on our website.
