A typical Hound spotted earlier

Pants Down Hound

3 Hounds in the house before seven, but few others until the start of the quiz when the place suddenly filled up. Kevster stranded at some airport or we would have been 4.

Pictures were all starting with "B" or would have been if Siobhan hadn't asked for the brand of baked beans. No problem with the Burundi flag.

Decent effort in the current affairs round, another issuance of postage stamps has passed us by (songbirds this time), and who knew that 77 degrees proof Bombay gin had briefly hit the off licence shelf.

Authors for round 3. "A woman is just a woman, but a cigar is a good smoke ". Kipling not Hemingway, but we got the rest.

British islands for the connections round, Rams, Copeland, St Mary's, Muck, Rum, Asparagus (really), Harris, Lewis, Samson.

Sorted out the tenners between us, still in the running.

Nidd was the hardest answer in the chain letters round, but they're all easy if you know them.

Less said about the jeopardy round the better, we flip/flopped between red/orange as the visibly coloured tag on Levi jeans. Not sure why we didn't just leave it out but we ended up flopping for orange.

Solid music round, would have been close but to be honest the other teams are raising their game as well.

No quiz on the 25th. No Robson for the 11th, Portugal is to be arraigned by both him and then Steve in quick succession, will it ever be the same again? Old Petworth Railway station looks nice for a short stay.
