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?

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
    • It's not really though, is it. It's practical.  At least we're allowed Christmas lights.
