Extra Fun At The Montague Arms
Someone worked out that January had an extra Thursday, so Frog Morris and the 2nd Thursday's crew trooped down again to run the Unwrong Pub Quiz. This was similar to a normal pub quiz except that there were no wrong or right answers, surrealism and creativity would win prizes! It was also accompanied by some suitably otherworldy music.
I was the light relief whilst the questions were marked. I'd noticed recently that annual events are happening earlier and earlier these days. For example, Christmas starts around the middle of September and Easter eggs often make it into the January sales these days. With that in mind I decided to have a sing-along of my Summer anthem to welcome THE START OF SUMMER!! The weather did it's part too, with the worst weather of the year so far. Perfect English Summer conditions, as if to re-inforce my point. I printed up some lyric sheets and encouraged the (admittedly small) crowd to sing along, which they did with gusto!! So well done to everyone there for a very fun evening. I'm doing the Summertime sing-along again at The Horn this Sunday, so do come along and join in.
As far as the quiz went there were prizes for everyone. I won a laser pointer for my answer to the question "Discuss?" when I drew a picture of a discus. Although co-host Mark though it was a UFO. He had a point. I'm disappointed I didn't win anything for guessing the question to the answer "Norway". I wrote "Complete the well known Frank Sinatra song; I did it _______". Geddit?
I was so enjoying the evening that I forgot to get any pictures. Ah well.

just kidding, thought it would be funny to just leave "twat" in your comments box but then worried you might write "arse" in mine or something so, er, wrote this by way of explanation...
... bored today, yes yes
Er, thanks for that. Bored, huh? Well you should be writing lyrics or songs for SAD.

Sounds like a fun night! But REALLY, what are you going to do with a laser pointer?
Vi: Scare Americans into thinking they are being targeted by a sniper? Other than that, no idea.
