SUMMARY:General Quiz
DESCRIPTION:This is a very sociable group which meets every month. \nOrdinarily\, you work in a small team. No prizes. No losers. Just light-hearted sociable fun with 10 rounds of quickfire questions and answers. \n98% of all questions are answered by someone so don’t be shy; come and check us out.\nIf you’ve got the answers to most of the questions and you’ve had fun then I’ve done my job. \nThe quiz format has been changed somewhat\, so you should see some improvements\, it’s still all fairly light-hearted fun! \nPlease be sure to allow time to buy a drink before we start at 10am. \nWe meet at the Oddfellows Hall\, on Whiting Street\, Refreshments available. Admission is free although we do ask for a voluntary donation to Parkinsons UK.

SUMMARY:Canasta
DESCRIPTION:Canasta originated in Montevideo\, Uruguay in 1939. \nInitially\, you make melds of 3 cards of the same value which you build on to make a Canasta (7 cards). Cards have different values according to their face value. The purpose of the game is to reach 5\,000 points. The more points you score\, the more card values you need to put in an initial meld – in other words\, you are handicapped. This is what makes the game interesting. \nI have a copy of the Canasta card game that we would follow because I know that there are several different ways to play.

SUMMARY:The Other Wine Group
DESCRIPTION:Due to popular demand a second Wine Appreciation Interest Group has started. \nWe have capped the group at 12-13 to allow everyone to be involved and contribute in the discussions during the tastings. \nWe sample wines from the primary styles of wine to the more unusual from the top wine producing countries to the lesser known from around the world. \nWe sample 6-7 wines each month.   We take turns to volunteer (optional) to research and bring the wine one month and guidance on groups of wine to sample can be provided. \nAll costs are shared\, and we each pay £12 per head covering the cost of wines.

SUMMARY:Canasta
DESCRIPTION:Canasta originated in Montevideo\, Uruguay in 1939. \nInitially\, you make melds of 3 cards of the same value which you build on to make a Canasta (7 cards). Cards have different values according to their face value. The purpose of the game is to reach 5\,000 points. The more points you score\, the more card values you need to put in an initial meld – in other words\, you are handicapped. This is what makes the game interesting. \nI have a copy of the Canasta card game that we would follow because I know that there are several different ways to play.
