The Annual Burgess Xmas Quiz took place on Monday 7th December at Aberdeenshire Cricket Club. A total of 43 Burgesses making up 11 teams took part. As in previous quizzes, the quizmaster was Past Dean of Guild Fred Dalgarno, who set some challenging questions and picture rounds.
In the absence of the Lord Dean of Guild, Colin Taylor who was unable to attend following a knee operation, Assessor Sylvia Halkerston thanked all those for attending, Fred for compiling the quiz questions and the Cricket Club staff for their excellent hospitality.
With a score of 66 out of a possible 120 points the team comprising Alistair Blues, Gordon Edwards, Stuart Robison, and Andrew Lawtie were the winners.
All those in attendance agreed that this was a very enjoyable social event and look forward to the next quiz in 2016.
The list of events and lunches for the first 6 months of next year is being finalised and the Lord Dean of Guild will post details to the website in the very near future.
