Any Pub Quizzes?

[John Marwood]

I went to my first quiz in years last weekend in the smoke

Have to say the questions seemed rather obscure even for someone with an odd mind like mine

Twas only at the answer stage that I realised why

All the questions were designed to be tricky to find on the internet..

Does anyone know if the Joxers quiz is on tonight?

 

[Wormella]

Yes it is I think, I think Rob has the day off, but Sam assured me it was on...

 

[redstar]

All,
Seeing as I have been 'out of circulation' (read behaving) for some time,
the new bride would like to venture to an event such as a quiz..

I used to know them all, locations, times, days etc.... BUT the passage
of time isnt great on the mind, and the knowledge is gone....

Could you fine citizens of the boro please divulge the secrets of
these haunts please??

Thanks in advance!

Greyhound, County Road, Tuesdays, rarely starts before half nine, but times can be TV-football-dependent.

Don't tell a potential opponent!

I was thinking more along the lines of a new Team Secretary - perhaps redstar can write almost legibly and spell a bit...

 

[Florence]

No, no!
I'm the secretary!
You are just the brains of the operation.

Also Joxer's;

not that i go myself, and no doubt a regular would've posted it eventually - but seeing as i'm here.

Does sound rather jolly.

Indeed, an increasingly busy quiz, we're there most weeks..

Plus food, don't forget the food.

Popular with students (or at least was, would i be right in assuming still is?), though i'm not sure why.

Did i mention the free food?

 

[Glam]

The student team used get called pondlife,gawd knows why,but they only seemed go for the free food. AND! Don't sit on Mrs Mertons table!!!

i have no idea who or what switchgear is, but there's a whole thread about it here.. i thought it was just a thread where senile communists tried to out-non-sequitur each other, but perhaps not!

We were Frankie Vivaldi and the Four Seasons for the music quizzes, but I don't think anybody ever saw the joke. Otherwise, Fawlty Tower Block.

David Owen - "Why do you lot always win?"
Mr S Wain - "We just read magazines all day."

i have no idea who or what switchgear is

It's like this.

We did the Greyhound Quiz tonight - and managed a second place. There was a simian Forumite in attendance - under some half-hearted supervision, but he was of little use.....

 

[tek-monkey]

I bet he was drunk again

 

[Florence]

Looked that way from where I was sitting.

The Stafford Sunday Quiz league is starting its winter season soon.

There is a meeting in the Bird in Hand on the 2nd of Sept at 8pm if anyone is interested in entering a pub team.

If you want more details, just ask me.

Hasn't the Bird in Hand closed? There was a sign on the door at the weekend stating it was 'closed until further notice'.
