Stafford has been lacking a good pub quiz for ages...Sofa used to run them every month or so at The Lamb, but I can't think of many places I'd rather avoid than there nowadays since it's reopened.
As of Sunday 28th September The Railway Inn on Castletown will be hosting a (hopefully) monthly quiz from around 8pm. There will be all the usual rounds such as music, arts & literature, current affairs, sports, general knowledge, history etc etc. It's not just going to be someone reading questions out of a crappy shop-bought quiz book, and there will also be some questions on local knowledge too. There will be 5/6 max per team, only a small entry fee, and the prize will most likely be the total of the money taken.
The Railway Inn is a small, traditional pub, with well-kept cask ales, a huge whisky collection, a log fire in the winter and a friendly atmosphere, so come along and have some end-of-weekend fun!
The other Sundays in the month are planned to become 'Wii Sundays', which should be great if not a little dangerous! Leagues in tennis, baseball, bowling, boxing and other stuff are planned, and this should be starting some time in October so I will post again when it's all confirmed.
