The Solstice Quiz – 18th December 2008

As is traditional, the OAS Christmas meeting had no formal speaker. However, we did have a healthy quantity of Christmas food ranging from nibbles to Gateaux.

We were however treated to Jim’s scintillating Chairman’s Address and a quiz as set by Miriam and Jeff. As it came from one of our smarter members, the questions were of a tricky astronomical nature, and at times, fixated on minor planets.  It was a close run contest, with some teams actually answering some of the questions but victorious was a team called Allouette.

The Christmas meeting wrapped up (pardon the pun) after more consumption of goodies and closed another fantastic year of OAS meetings, speakers and events.
