The preceding weeks had been spent trudging around Maynooth in the hope of finding spot prizes and sponsorship for the social extravaganza that is the YFG Christmas table quiz. Yet again, the work on the ground was repaid with a successful fundraiser leaving the kitty full to overflowing for the exciting tasks facing us in 2007.

This year's guest quiz master was Senator Sheila Terry who arrived to find the students of NUI Maynooth in high spirits following The Christmas day themed events in the student bar. However, a loyal band of YFGers took their places in "the venue" in a vain attempt to prove their intelligence. Mr. Thomas Lawless had clearly racked his brains in finding the toughest questions, even the victorious Cellbridge team found the going tough.

As Sheila asked the questions it was clear that a two horse race was emerging. Mmmmbop were pushing Cellbridge all the way, and had the political round not gone against them, may have won the contest. However, in the end the team led by Councillor Katy Ridge won the day.

Having dished out the numerous prizes, and taken more than enough photos, it was time to conclude the evening's event. Mel got up on stage to congratulate the winners, thank the participants before calling on Orlene to present Senator Terry with a bouquet of flowers as a symbol of our gratitude for a fine performance.
