11th November 2010

In a packed programme tonight;

*Kevster has squirrels in his loft
*Chips, chips, as big as battleships
*Laydee's, lots of lovely laydees (Danny)
*Hound comes second

The evening got off to a strange start when the shemale barmaid came and asked us for ' a strong man' to lend a hand. We offered up Robson and shared a collective shudder as they disappeared into the store cupboard. One can only imagine what horrors befell Robson in there but some things are better left unsaid.

Back in the 'Swan' Bar conversation veered from The Saturdays to the symmetry of clock faces. This may have contributed to Tony choosing to leave us at this point.

So, the ' Remembrance Hounds' team comprised The Mighty Az, Robson, Kevster and myself.

There then followed a quiz with pictures and questions punctuated by several bowls of huge chips. The only round I can recall with any clarity was the 'Pubs of Sutton' photo round which , you may be surprised to hear, Kevster excelled at.

There was 7 teams this week which upped the level of competition somewhat. There were 2 teams of laydees sat directly behind us, cackling and shrieking as women do and singing along to all the music round questions. We didn't want to lose to them! And we didn't. They probably thought that we were great.

When all was said and done, we finished in second place, only 2 points shy of the winning total. So all in all, not a bad effort. We supped our runners up wine (Coke for Az) and pondered next week's quiz, which might be on a Wednesday and might be a different venue. Or not.
