Drinkers = Thinkers

Sometimes, the team that drinks the most also answers the most questions right and this was true on Monday at The Reverie where PARAGUAY SHOULD HAVE WON 3-1 were in rampant form, both in ordering dirnks at the bar and in answering questions.

I was hired by Reverie regulars Michelle and Keith to do a quiz at their wedding which went off on Sunday and was a dazzling success. (Email me to discuss terms for weddings). Anyway, apart from me being ace, the other highlight was meeting Ruth Madoc who happened to be married to the bride’s uncle [...]

So Nearly The Hat Trick

The last two times that the Reverie jackpot has gone up to £100, GOOGLE EYED did the job and took home the cash. After threatening to do it again on Facebook yesterday, the team turned up as usual (except minus the brainy female one and plus two boozy males) and proceeded to win the quiz. [...]
