Weekly Pub Quiz post!!!
Last night's team consisted on me, His lordship, Claire, Hugh and a special guest appearnce from Will (who was all ruffled up - I know girls who'd love to ruffle his hair :))
No Jim 'cos he'd had a crap day at work prompting our team name to be Jim's had a bad day at work
1. Which has more caffine, Tea or Cola?
2. What is the name of the largest sportwear company in the world?
3. What is the maximum legal speed on a single carriageway road in the UK?
4. Which British seaside resort was the first to open a nudist beach in the 1970s?
5. What was the capital of West Germany?
6. What New York city street is named after what once kept Indians at bay?
7. What does a monophobe fear?
8. What sports organisation had the abbreviation BSJA?
9. How many planes make up the Red Arrows?
10. What is the larger version of Lego called?
11. What is the most common score in English football's one hundred and eleven year history?
12. Zepplin in a Fog is an American Slang term for which meal?
13. In which month is the London Marathon run?
14. Where did roulette originate?
15. What is the worlds bestselling clothes brand?
We managed a very respectable 13/15 - which is our best first round score ever. Also at the end of the first round we were the top team. Don't worry if you don't know the answers to many questions, one team maned ONE point in that round!!!
We did pretty good in the picture round and the sound rounds too - me guessing the theme tune (write the theme tune, sing the theme tune) to Coupling in about 3 notes (hurrah for Steven Moffat) and I did pretty niftily on the music round too. Claire has a storming quiz - getting loads and loads of questions right - good on her :D
The final outcome was 35/40 for us and we WON! Wo0t! 4 bottles of Holsten and 4 bottles of Reef was ours! And the bad memories of last week are gone!
On the Girls V Boys round, I correctly caught Betty Boo before His Lordship (whose specialist music subject is 90's crap pop) although he did get a couple to redeem himself.
Sadly there will be no pub quiz post again next week (We're going to see Rufus Wainwright! Yay!) I'm quite gutted to be missing it as the Boys V Girls round is going to be a TV themes special and that's almost my specialist subject.
