No word from Jamma - does that mean no win?????


Okay - we're next out on 8th May - would prefer Hoopers but willing to go to any quiz that has good competition. There have been plenty of people on this thread who seem to think they are up to the challenge but we've yet to go head to head yet.


Any teams up for that date? Hoopers or elsewhere?

Bah, babysitter let us down last minute so didn't make the quiz which well pissed me off.

Not sure what date we'll be back in action, possibly the Clockhouse on Tues. But nutty choose your venue well, we will destroy any challengers at the Hoopers quiz absolutely guaranteed.

Oh Mr(s) Nutty, you are soon to feel the force of a fully operational quiz machine.

And once we are finished with you we shan't return to Hoopers we'll move on and you'll keep going there and you'll win again but you'll always know that any future wins just don't really count because somewhere out there is a crack quiz team who could crush you on a whim.

The 'mystery' year round, question one - In what year was 1984? FFS.

Connections round, question one - What connects people who have names that are types of birds? Jeeesus.

International pub quiz convention dictates that 6 is the maximum permissable number of members in a quiz team. And bussing in folk from far away is frowned upon.

We clearly misfired (that was our worst result in any quiz ever) due to the fact we hadn't been together for about six months and we had to field one substitute. The inquest has begun and we shall regain our previous invincibility. So you won on your home turf (which was shit), bring it to The Plough next week and let's see how you fare.

"In what year was 1984?"


Should that read "..written?" otherwise the answer is probably 1984.


Mind yuo, this is from the quiz that insisted the Israelites ate a poisoned apple on the trek to the promised land.

hmmmm - it would have been much easy to slate a quiz for being for dumbasses had you actually won. I don't think you even made it into the top two and kept quiet about who you were.


Admittedly it was fairly childish of us to name our team "Not Jamma" but the purile pleasure of hearing Jamie finish the evening with...


"..and the winners are 'Not Jamma'"


..was too good to pass up - if a little presumptious of us when naming our team at the start.


Okay - when is the plough one - I'll try and raise the troops. I doubt there will be as many of us next time, a couple of extras just came along for a drink, the core team of four or so holds the brainpower.


Don't get the comment about "bussing in folk from far away is frowned upon"?

      Bitey Fox.

      By Babbit · Posted

      I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
