I know the last fundraising charity quiz has only just finished, but due to the extraordinary situation we find ourselves in, I thought I would bring out the next quiz early. It is hopefully something to help pass the time, and keep your minds active as well. It is a 130 question word quiz, based on our Societies initials ‘SGS’. There will be the usual three prizes, £20 for first, £10 for second, and a £5 random prize. It is only £1 to enter, and the closing date is the 1st August, so plenty of time to exercise those little grey cells. If this lockdown continues beyond August, then I may extend the closing date, but I will let you know. The quiz is available by email to [email protected] 
Please send your answer sheet with your entry fee to the address written in the terms and conditions, all proceeds go to the Spalding Gentlemen’s Society. 
Charity number 216131 
Good luck, and please stay safe.

'CORRECTION' 
It has been pointed out, and correctly so, that question 44 in the new Spalding Gentlemen's Society WORD quiz, the answer is one 'S' letter short. I am so sorry about that. I will of course accept it as correct. In my rush to get the quiz out to help everyone in isolation, I made this mistake, very sorry.
Dave

Further correction to:

Spalding Gentlemen's Club Quiz

CORRECTION AGAIN
So sorry about this, hopefully the last mistake. Q84, I have missed an 'S' letter from this anagram question.
I am annoyed with myself for making small errors. It must be the isolation that's making be forgetful, or is it just old age.
Sorry again.
Dave
