 As promised, spring has arrived and the flowers bloomed at the quiz on Wednesday, 4th March. For one bed of roses, namely Stars of the Sea, this nearly resulted in a first win of the season, but their green fingers could not get them all the way to the flower show and they were pipped on the line by the denizens of Gardeners’ World that are Enchantress. This was Enchantress’s second win of the series and puts them in 4th place overall in the league table. T.B.M. won some valuable points by coming 3rd, ahead of Wizard, Chancellors, and the Celtic Boys. Flying starts by Tango and Celtic Warriors could not be maintained, and F-15 maintained their improved form.

The seasonal NYC quiz series should experience three phases: a multi-coloured autumnal introduction as we turn over a new leaf; a crisp-cold wintry response to awkward questions; and a spring to action when the final leaderboard takes shape. Whence the spring? We have a vernal desire for change (no, you read that wrong, it says vernal!). Wizard certainly keep a spring in their step, as they showed by winning the quiz on Wednesday 18th February to cement their overall lead. Enchantress and the Celtic Boys continued their good form to tie for second place. Salopettes and T.B.M. tied for 4th, keeping T.B.M.’s overall hopes alive. Those hopes will need the sun to shine in order to blossom.

 

Overall, Wizard hold a strong lead over T.B.M. (leaderboard can be found on the notice board in the Club) but with discards now being sown in the thawing ground, the lead is not insurmountable. Celtic Boys and Enchantress are saplings in comparison, but at least above ground. The Corner Boys have started their expected slide and might not bear fruit this season. The Salopettes have gained some places by may need to be replanted. Of course, all of these primaveral references will be lost on the Chancellors featuring Eoin in Australia who remain on an antipodean cycle.

 

So, a call to action! The quiz is going to spring forth, and demand that Proserpina, Flora,  Chloris and Eostre show up on the 4th March – like a pre-historic pagan rite to call forth the children of Persephone. When will these deities arrive? 8pm, sharp! All be prepared – an ability to identify flowers will be an advantage as the season heats up.
