I have to hold my hands up and apologise for my terrible marking abilities last night. To the Darmar Devils, I am sorry I gave you last place by forgetting to add your points on from the picture round and thank you for correcting me in such a wonderful way... I think ;-)
It all got sorted out in the end and apart from a little querying over Roman Numerals, please see attached picture for how 49 is written in the 'old style', I think it all ran rather smoothly from my perspective!!!!!

Thank you as always to all of you wonderful people who turn up each quiz night and put your hands deep into your pockets to raise money towards the HELP for HEROES charity. You raised €195 last night and I cannot thank you enough for your generosity and kindness for such a worthwhile cause.
Thank you also to Leonidas from MEATING in Platanias (Telephone 2821060321) for his amazing donation of three €10 gift-cards to use in his shop. Thank you's must also go to Linda and Cathy for their donations of two wonderful boxes of chocolates and to Graham for the wine and meal for two in the raffle prizes.
So....on with the results;
After my fiasco with the scoring, The Darmar Devils gave back the last place prize which instead went to the 'Ian Yates Fan Club' for the first time EVER with a paltry score of 55 1/2 which was all down to having a terrible time in the picture round...sorry guys. Close behind them were Sprung Chickens who have been struggling this season, I must do more Ukelele music next time I think.
The Darmar Devils, due to their seasonaly adjusted score were in 6th place and The Challengers had a fantastic night scoring 62 and coming 5th. Team Anonimouse came 4th, (sorry for keeping you longer than normal...no really, I am...honest...it's true...) and Team Bonnie & Clyde/Norf n Souf were disputing the Roman Numerals all the way into third place.
The rugby themed team name this week was The Scarlets and they manged 66 points and second place, meaning that once again in FIRST PLACE were the 4 Seasons with a huge total of 69 of which more than half (35 points) was scored in the final two rounds...especially that last question on countries ending in R.
Thank you again everyone for coming along to THE BLACK LANTERN on a quiz night and making it a fun night for me, keep the banter coming, I love it!
The next quiz is on Valentines Night - 14th February, so expect some smoochin' music and the feeling of love is in the air...myself, Alison, Graham, Apostole, Ewelina and Maria all hope to see you there.
