This week saw Fulshaw WI’s first team entry into Cheshire Federation’s Quiz competition at Mottram St Andrew’s Village Hall. The team said their expectations were minimal at the start (let’s not be bottom), but as soon as the adrenaline kicked in, and they found out the ‘hints’ after round 4, they scored a 10 out of 10 on round 5. Thankfully, and with much relief, they came in upper middle position at the end with only a few points splitting them from being ‘near to the top’.It was a huge laugh, and the team are looking forward to next year - now they know the rules! Thanks to Donna, Jane Holland, Anne Kerr and Jane Martindale for representing us in style. ______________________________________________ Results of voting for the NFWI Resolutions: 1.
