    Are people quizzing today?

    I wouldn't be averse to the idea :) I think serrity's unavailable due to International Gallivanting Antics, but Jack B. Badd and I are around.

    Au contraire, the antics concluded (very) late last night - plus I have a backlog of magazines for you lot, so it's on!

    Ah, fair enough. I should warn you that as a result of a Secret Quiz Cabal Committee (hereby abbreviated to SQCC, aka "Scusi") this week's quiz-like activities have been deferred until tomorrow night at the Black Lion.

    Usually I don't deal well with change but an arbitrary date change to tomorrow would actually work well for me. Probably

    Although the 'Secret' in the title is now somewhat obsolete...

    Jack B. Badd and I can't do tomorrow as we've got cinema tickets, but I got the impression last week that Tuesdays were the way to go because the ladies have the hots for the quizmaster at the Black Lion more convenient for everyone.

    I'm out for tomorrow because I'll be in Edinburgh. I'll probably be out for today as well actually because I need to buy a suitcase and then pack for Edinburgh. Next week I'm in Ireland on Monday, so Tuesday would be better for me.

    I'm househunting too! (4 bed flat if anyone hears of anything nice)

    I'm saying yes for Thur. It starts at 8 so I can squeeze any potential viewings before then. :)

    Yarp, we're fed up with the lack of action & communication so we're gonna up sticks and move to an empty flat. Hope to stay around Kilburn if we can though!

    Right, I've booked a table for four tomorrow night (Thursday). It doesn't look like we'll get a definite second group of four for another team, but they will be making teams out of the stragglers on the night, so get there early if you want to be part of the Official Boards Lineup (tm).

    Indeed it was not cancelled... WE WON!

    £200 prize money, multiple raffle prizes and a 'highly commended' artistic rendering of Ireland made out of instant coffee. Best. Quiz. Ever.

    Hmmm... tonight is tricky. Any chance said drinks could be postponed to West Hampstead this Sunday night instead?

    Besides, I'm not sure my eardrums will survive another assault from Hobo McDreamy.

    Sunday would probably be better if that suits you. I'll miss Hobo McDreamy though....
