    Walked past the Alliance numerous times so seems a good excuse to go in. I'm in for Thursday

    Tube strike rules me out for Thursday, too. If this results in me missing out on a cash windfall, I will personally execute Bob Crow in a painful, messy and creative fashion.

    Oh crud, I had forgotten about the tube strikes. Given that I don't live within walking distance of this place, maybe I should give it a miss as well :(

    It's £2 in and winners get the pot. There's also a separate picture round with a bottle of wine for the winners. Then it's £2 for the raffle. Winner of that has to pick one of 10 envelopes. In one of the envelopes is the £1700/1800 cash prize, other nine envelopes have dinner for two.

    Is the Sunday night quiz that you guys do part of the group that use the same set of questions?

    Handout with around 30 visual questions? Music round with songs from 60s - 2010s? Final bonus question?

    I've been to one or two of those down South recently and I'd like to make it regular occurrence.

    Going to try rally up a SW quiz team again as there's plenty of spots down here that do it every Sunday.

    I don't think so. The pub/quizmaster sets the questions at ours, but the format does seem similar apart from the final bonus question. You're more than welcome up north if you ever fancy the trek.

    Is The Alliance quiz still on a Thursday? And if so is anyone up for it this evening?

    I'd like to grab at least one quiz before I start globetrotting again next week

    Don't think I can make it today as I'm flying back from Cork later. But I wouldn't mind doing the Earl Derby quiz on Tuesday if it's still going

    Me too. You're about to lose me for the next month due to the World Cup (Don't judge me, you don't seem to mind when it proves useful in sports rounds!!) so it'd be good to have one last quiz before then.

    I'll judge you from here to kingdom come :P

    RIP Rik Mayall

    On the plus side, it'd be a travesty to not use 'Drop Dead Rik' as our team name tomorrow night. It's what he would've wanted.
