The Legal Brain of Surrey Quiz returns O
n Thursday 19th March 2020, we had a full house booked to attend our revamped Legal Brain of Surrey Quiz. We were excited to be hosting over 50 members at a brand new venue, The Weyside in Guildford, and looking forward to an evening of quizzing and networking. Sadly, a week before we were due to meet, it became apparent that holding such a gathering would not be safe and so the event was postponed before the country went into national lockdown 26 March. At that time, we had imagined that the Quiz would be back in the calendar before the summer and had never considered we would have to wait until December 2021 before it could go ahead once more. Well, it was certainly worth the wait, and we are delighted that on 1 December 10 teams comprising SLS members and patrons came together to enjoy 10 rounds of general knowledge

questions in a bid to win our Mike Coverley Challenge Cup. The venue was packed and all those in attendance enjoyed platters of food and good company whilst they tested their knowledge on subjects such as entertainment, current affairs and sport. In addition, attendees deciphered pictures, considered a ‘connections’ round and tested their nerve with a final ‘Wipeout’ section where they could risk all their points in that round if they answered a full house of questions, resulting in 5 bonus points! In the end it was Gordons Partnership who reigned victorious, with runners up from QualitySolicitors Palmers and TWM Solicitors, but all our teams did fantastically. We were particularly thrilled to have our sponsors for the evening in attendance, HFS Milbourne, Landmark Information and Access Legal, and would like to thank them for their support, which enabled the event to finally go ahead. ■
