For the end of 2015 it's a welcome return to our now annual tech-themed Pub Quiz.
The questions will be techy, but not too serious, geeky, or necessarily, even PHP-orientated. There'll be a bar tab along with some bar snacks and we're in the process of putting a selection of prizes together.
We're thinking teams of 4, if you don't have enough we'll pair you up, and we'll be hosting at the Bristol Ram on Park Street.
We'd like to thank the following people for their prize contributions:
• JetBrains for sponsoring the welcome drinks & 2 PhpStorm licenses
• PHP UK Conference for a conference ticket
• White October Events for a Render conference ticket
• PHP South Coast for a conference ticket
• Nomad PHP for 2 x 6 month subscriptions
