MQL Golden Jubilee Dinner - 3rd April 2009

As part of MQL's Golden Jubilee Celebrations, a dinner was held at the Village Hotel, Whiston on Friday 3rd April. Pictured left to right on top table are Frank McFarlane (MQL Chairman), Barry Simmons (Guest Speaker) and Ken Smith (MQL President).

Chairman Frank McFarlane welcomed those present. After the meal President Ken Smith entertained those present with MQL memories and anecdotes from over the years. It was then the job of MQL Treasurer Dag Griffiths to introduce guest speaker Barry Simmons from BBC2's 'Eggheads'. Barry entertained us with stories from his quizzing career and gave us several insights into the running of Eggheads and how he became a member of the team.

A thoroughly enjoyable evening was had by all and a big thank you must go to Angela Houghton as co-ordinator of the event.

A big thank you also to all those pictured below - among those who supported the event
