Taurus hosted its annual Quiz Night for media, customers and friends last night at the lovely Bowlo restaurant in Milsons Point.
With sweeping views of Sydney Harbour Bridge as the backdrop, everyone was eager to get into the competitive spirit and the games begun with the naming of tables. Names such as Taurus Rising, The Schappelles and TechWits demonstrated much originality though little did the teams know that they would soon have to dress up a team member as their namesake, who then modelled the outfit for the crowd! The results were hilarious. With champagne, Tim Tams and salt and pepper squid flowing freely, the night was a resounding success. And the winners? The Sharon Williams All Stars! |
