SENIOR BLADES MAY 2020 NEWSLETTER

Hi to all  SENIOR BLADES

The Chairman and Committee trust you are all keeping well and safe, through these challenging times. Not our normal Newsletter, but we hope we will be back to normal in the not too distant future.

Members seemed to enjoy the FOOTBALL ALL AT SEA quiz last month ( nobody has completed it ) a few are close but not over the line yet. So Kathryn, Stephen and myself thought you might like a couple more quizzes as a change to your crosswords and sudokus. One is a Football Quiz ( of course ) and something a little different,  a Sheffield Place Names Quiz.
