Quizzed to death

Another Monday, another quiz night.


This time we came fourth (again). Fail.


On average we seem to be getting worse not better, although the fact there wasn't a film round did hurt us a lot.


Still I got a question about Dick Turpin right, so it can't be all bad.


The next one's not until December, so here's hoping there's a Christmas round. As, I may have mentioned once or twice before, I do love Christmas...

A decline in Quizzage

The other night we attended the bi-monthly quiz in our local leisure centre. Previously we placed third, after a mighty effort.


This time we only managed fourth. Fail.


However we were only six points behind the winner, so not too shabby.


Still, we've got a long road ahead. The next one isn't until October, so I'll start swotting up...

How to not win at quizzes

Went to a pub quiz earlier in the week, which I didn’t win. My team came third out of eight, which is fairly respectable, or so I’m told.

I think the problem was largely that there were too many questions about sport and soap operas, and not enough about The X-men, Stephen King or the films of George Lucas. They didn’t even mention The Princess Bride once.

Who says my knowledge is too esoteric?
