A typical Hound spotted earlier

There a quiz at 8 Hound.

Asked the barman if we could have the Footy on the tv to which he responded ‘Yes but there’s a quiz at 8’. You don’t say, not enough to prevent us from seeing Argentina capitulate though. We’re a trio today against only 3 other teams in the last quiz until 19 July I think.

Girl band members for the piccies, can’t find my copy so no scan. We mistook one for Cheryl on a bad day but it was someone else. Also got wrong member right band for this one...


Keisha Buchanan not Mutya Buena from the Sugababes.

Back to usual form with 6 correct in Current Affairs. Some hard to guess ones.

Didn’t do well either on round where all questions or answers were dot related. EnDOThermic being the most obscure but we got that one.

Music round instead of connections. Didn’t know that these 2 were originally Caesar and Cleo. Just one other wrong. Shane Ritchie Wham! Cover anyone?


How about that tache!

Ten pointer re first building with more than 100 floors tripped Anoraks up but not us. Empire State Building not Chrysler. After some agonising I correctly identified the dog from Back to the Future.



Einstein not Edison.

Clear Round on Chain Letters including Flemish Giant.


We skipped all the right ones in the Jeopardy round. The Scorpions were the rival gang of The T-Birds in Grease. Grimes is the surname of Jedward. And in a welcome return of the bear-trap The PM not the chancellor is the First Lord of the Treasury.

Romped in following the music round, a tougher quiz than recently. A good thing I think.

Shane Ritchie covered Young Guns not Last Christmas.

Reminder that Daren is hosting Chez Lui this Thurs, England v Belgium. He has kitty money to provide refreshments but bring any piece de resistances that you may have. 4pm is Daren’s opening gambit for arriving at his. Group H final games kick-off at 3pm. I am happy to meet at Kenley Hotel by Kenley station at 3pm to watch first half then walk to Daren’s if anyone cares to join me. Any alternative offers will be considered.

G-Force.
