16th July  2001

On the left is a selection of photographs taken at Bolton's spring/summer season finals night.  Bolton is one of those leagues that, unable to cope without their quizzes, run seasons separated only by 3 or so weeks!

The venue for the occasion was the splendid Astley Bridge Conservative Club.  The smiles on the faces of those seen on the left (and some of the bleary expressions) can be attributed to two close fought matches, a top class buffet, oh yes, and some fine quality cheap beer !
