Christmas Quiz

The Newark Physio Christmas Quiz has been around for over 20 years.  Originally, it consisted of questions just about Christmas, but when they ran out, the puzzle master devised quizzes with different themes.  For instance, in 2023 the questions were all about singers and bands, whereas in 2022 it was all about films.  No specialist knowledge is needed to answer the quiz questions as it tends to be a lot of word play.

This year's quiz is all about famous people - it was going to be famous British people, but I'm sure that somewhere a non-Brit has crept in so it is Famous People - mostly British!

We use the quiz to raise money for charity.  Last year it was the Linc and Notts Air Ambulance, this year the  money will be going to the Newark Dementia Carers Group.  We have kept the price at £1 although we are very happy to accept donations above that level.

The quiz will be going on sale from early November and can be purchased from this website, from Newark Physio clinic (at 2 Cartergate, Newark) or from Mike at Marshalls hairdressers.  If anyone is able to sell copies of the quiz, we would really appreciate it - just have a word with Mark at the physio clinic.

The prizes will be drawn on the afternoon of 22/12/26 and are a £25 Waitrose voucher, a bottle of bubbly and an individual home made Xmas cake (kindly supplied by Matt Lathlane).

Although the main purpose of the quiz is to raise money for charity, Mark gets a tremendous amount of enjoyment compiling it, and he hope that you get the same pleasure attempting to solve it.  Good luck.
