    I'm calling this week a wash. We shall rally our forces for next week and lull the opposition into a false sense of security!

    Yes, yes, I'm suitably ashamed at my non-appearance. Luckily I'm around next week... if the quiz is on on a bank holiday?

    Wouldn't mind giving one a go if there's interest on SW. I'm no quizzie (yes I just made up that word) but would like to give it a go.

    I'm South West as well and would definitely be up for finding a quiz team! I used to have a regular one when I lived in Ealing but haven't managed to get to anything regularly here.

    Was it on? If so, how did ye do? And more importantly, was Gareth back? (So much for my High Horse last week - myself and Jack B. Badd missed it last night...)

    Any quiz goers out East? There's a weekly Monday night quiz that has started up in the local pub the Red Lion in Leytonstone, and I'd been keen on going if there was a few more interested...

    Boards quiz teams taking on the London quiz scene bit by bit!:D

    Well it looks like there's a bit of interest in a SW team.

    Not sure how up to date this list is but it gives a general idea of the amount of quizzes each week. Plenty to chose from though it's a shame you can't filter by area.

    Our housemate-hunting saga trundles on into it's second month (seriously, there's a book in this story somewhere or, at worst, an R Kelly-style Hip Hop-era) so I'm going to have to bail AGAIN.

    Will be back to give out to Gareth for getting something wrong soon, I promise... :)

    This better mean that we can once again offer answers for sports-related questions (ie you're coming back).

    Jack B. Badd & I shall be there.

    Quiz tonight. Team name suggestions? Perhaps unsurprisingly, I'm leaning towards "MOON NAZIS ARE COMING!" :D

    That's actually better than expected... 10-to-1 it'll be the alternative quizmaster if we go with that.

    How about we keep an eye on how the England-France game goes and pick a suitably mean pun based on that if France win?

    Just rang 'em and they said the quiz is on as normal after the match. Hopefully England'll lose so the supporters will be glum and shove off downstairs swiftly :D

    I find it highly suspect that your return coincides with England's departure from the tournament. Who is it you've been supporting these past few weeks? ;)

    I think you'll find this is also the first quiz night since Ireland were formally knocked out and the first Monday Rest Day, so it's nothing more than a coincidence. Now if you'll excuse me I've some St George's Cross bunting to remove from the front of my house...
