Mamo TCV Charity Quiz Night News

Mamo TCV Charity Quiz Night

Yesterday's annual Mamo TCV Quiz Night was a much awaited event at the firm. Quiz Master Andrew Muscat kicked off the proceedings, assisted by Nick Valenzia. Questions ranged from knowledge of ECHR and CJEU case law to identifying office pet owners from a picture of their pet. All teams fought harshly to win the much-coveted trophy, with points being close to a tie during the night. Finally Frank Testa's team prevailed amidst much celebration from this team. The sum of €2,600 was collected during the night with proceedings going to Id-Dar tal-Providenza in Siggiewi.
