    Not that we know of, but you're more than welcome to join us in the North London Tavern in Kilburn if you fancy it?

    If not, go down on your tod and join a team for the craic. As I can see from another thread, you already know the Fullback is a cracking spot. Unfortunately i don't get there half as much as I'd like.

    Nah, distant second behind the auld lads. The Doctor Who round really let us down. Didn't disgrace ourselves in music though, 8/10 plus the bonus five points.

    Shortlisted for best team name for 'another One Bites the Serb', but lost out to the excellent 'Don't tell your mum what it is yet'.

    No Gareth, apparently Dan has introduced a new rule where no team can win three weeks in a row

    It would definitely have been helpful if one of us actually watched Doctor Who. By the way exiledelbows is a secrete astrologer

    How is he going to impose that rule? If the old guys get the most points, they win. We may whinge about it, but it's tough luck. Hmmmm

    Yeah i agree, it's annoying losing to them every week but we beat them too so who cares? Plus our team changes week on week so it's impossible to enforce

    We won, beating the aul fellas. Also for some reason I bought Kinder Eggs and we reverted to childhood.

    Were the toys in the kinder eggs as good as the ones from our childhood though? I had bought chocolate kimberleys to bring along, but I don't think they'll last until next Monday. Well done on winning!

    Actually that sounds like an excellent idea, count me in! Is the NLT still on, since it's a bank holiday Monday?

    I've reached my year anniversary of living in London and have yet to make it to a quiz. What time does it start and what's the name of the pub? Do I have to wear a dunce's cap if I'm rubbish? :D

    The Sunday one is on at the Black Lion on West End Lane in West Hampstead, starting sometime after 8. Dunce's caps are entirely optional, as far as I know :)

    Cool, not sure until later if I can make it, depending on how plans go, but will drop you a text later if I am coming :)

    So do we have a crowd for this? A Sunday quiz sounds so wrong, yet so right at the same time

    I thought the quiz was at 8? I doubt I'll be there for 7, I'm going to have to take the scenic route as not only are the district and H&C lines off but Mile End is closed... Have I ever mentioned that I hate buses?

    Half 7 apparently but 8 is more likely alright. We're gonna pop up for a drink or 2 beforehand due to the lack of work tomorrow :-)
