Social Whirl

We're going out tonight!


Most people wouldn't consider this a big deal, but for two things. Firstly, it's only about the third time this year we've gone out for an evening of social interaction. And secondly, it's now the 29th of December.

Anyway, Oz and Lil will be under the watchful eye of Big Nana and we're going to a Pub Quiz in Lancaster under the watchful eye of Big Al. I'm hoping the question master will be over 55 otherwise I'm sunk but at least I can contribute to ideas for the team name. The last time I went to a Pub Quiz was about 10 years ago and there was a Team calling themselves "Norfolk 'n Good" so we subverted them by calling ourselves "Suffolk 'n What?". It was hilarious.

As there are two Taylors in the team tonight and they quite like sofas, I've suggested a Dickens theme :

"Taylor two settees"

And as we're getting Tapas bar snacks with the Quiz I've put forward:

"The Real Tapas and Shunters Club"

Reminds me of one of my old posts: http://bit.ly/7gB04v

Don't get the Duke of Wellington confused with Duke Ellington!

Give me a call if you need an interpreter.

I won a bottle of port at the last pub quiz I went to. Useful for a teetotaller.

And I've got a spare runner's-up medal, but you won't be wanting that, will you?

Geoff: Who wants to know! I'll put my Jazz Boots on.

Kaz: Eeee cheers meduck! It's a bit far but can we text you some Chemistry questions as well?

Dave: I always use to think that was "teatotaller" and people only drank tea.

Christopher: You're right! We are going for the big one!

Our team once misjudged and nearly won the village pub quiz. Winners have to write the questions for next month. We've not been since.

Hope you don't get any questions about Florence and the machine ;0)

Christopher said...

Well, what happened?

Dave said...

Did you win?

Rog said...

Z: We threw it on purpose just to avoid having to come back next week!

Sarah: No. I did answer one about Light My Fire by the Doors though!

Christopher and Dave: No, thanks for asking. I'll try you with a couple of questions....
