Quiz Time with Tommy
And a good time was had by all, one of the highlights of the weekend was the quiz, i suppose it was always going to be a tall order for poor Tommy the quiz master asking question to a room full of folk with tourettes all shouting out the answers as well as many other vocal tic's ,Tommy's professionalism shone through .
More to follow soon :)
