Fancy dress antics help whip up a whopping £1200 windfall

Delighted organisers have thanked all those who took part after a whopping £1200 was raised for local charities Welcome Ullapool and Cycling without age.

Dozens of teams donned fancy dress and visited the village’s eight participating bars, where their quiz skills were put to the test.

“The turnout on the night was incredible with 35 teams entering the contest – a huge increase on last year,” said a spokesman, who thanked all those who took part as well as the participating bars.

“We are amazed each year how many hilarious ideas the contestants can think up.

“On top of raising lots of money for charity Oddballs offers an opportunity for community spirit, creativity and really puts Ullapool on the map as a fun and welcoming place to visit.”

- The winners were: People’s choice – Still Game; Most topical – The Minch Swimmers; Most effort – The Fruit Salad Collective; Quiz winners – Orange Is The New Black.
