    Ah no I’m only messing! :D There isn’t a penalty, just there is a prize for the best one. This gives us a chance to excel in a new area, now that we’ve won the quiz and best team name, though probably it’ll just be me and Shirley in our festive gear :o

    I've been showing mine off to colleagues all day (I'm not wearing it yet, going to change at the pub).

    Mary Fitzgerald would be proud of us!

    Cursing the missed opportunity for hilarious Kim Jong-Il-related team names. Ah well!

    They lied! I distinctly remember being told by the quizmaster at the last one that it would be back on the 9th. Treachery :eek:

    I took the liberty of checking and South Korea's population is double North Korea's. GRRR!

    Need to look after one or two things but should hopefully make it

    Surely you're not going to suggest bringing a phone to a pub quiz? I am shocked at the very suggestion!
