Nine teams puzzled over questions themed around Frank Sinatra song titles, at the 2015 Moore (South) Isle of Wight charity quiz night last night. Quiz master, Graham Francis, a partner in Moore' Chichester office - supported by Isle of Wight Partners Kevin Cooper, Sue Lucas and Esme Shakeshaft - did a fantastic job.

Held for the second year at the Bargeman's Rest in Newport, the event raised funds for the Isle of Wight Youth Trust. Proceeds from team entry fees, a heads and tails game based on facts from the Youth Trust, and a raffle, raised over £900 to support the work of the Trust.

Eileen Monks, Director of the Trust gave an outline of the work of the Island Based charity, now in its 31st year, which provides counselling and support to the Isle of Wight's young people from its base in St John's Place and at other locations across the Island. Eileen commented, '"We are delighted with the funds raised, thank all concerned. The Isle of Wight Youth Trust is very grateful for the team's efforts and the funds raised which will  be put to good use. It was a great evening, and we enjoyed it very much."

Scorers Angela Evans, Claire Grace, Toby Rumsey and Sam Snudden, all from the Newport office of Moore counted the points, resulting in a second year running win for the team from solicitors Churchers Bolitho Way, with their colleagues from the Southsea office, coming a point behind in second.

Kevin Cooper commented, "It was a great way to network, meet up and have some fun, whilst helping a valuable local cause at the same time. Thank you to the teams that supported the event."

So, back to the title, can anyone easily decipher the anagram? A clue - the round was Classic British Food...
