Make sure you post here when you're going and I'll try and get my team there. We are the Hoopers International Quiz Champions 2 times running which sounds about comparable :)

I'm afraid to say we won again - a few more teams this time so the winnings are mounting up. I'll keep posting here until some quizmasters turn up and we get beat...


Will post the next date we will be turning up shortly...

That must be in some esoteric Kabaalah-type legend - don't appear in the authorised versions as far as I recall.


I'm always up for joining a team though my sporting knowledge is pretty poor.

Ha ha ha we pissed all over the spick and micks and came second with a team of just two. If we'd fielded a full-strength team we'd have coasted to victory. But with a full strength team (at least 4) the pot wouldn't be big enough to justify turning up. Plus it would be too easy to win so we'll be back only should morale drop at any point in future and we need a win to pick us up.

Owner Jamie's a nice chap though isn't he?

On to the Plough quiz next week. Anyone been to that and know if it's any good and what prize (which we will win) is likely to be?

    • a (clean) nappy/pamper, it was like it had snowed in the garden.  The absorbent stuff inside spread everywhere.  Can I have my gardening gloves back please.
    • They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.
    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
