It’s Tuesday. Hopefully no fire alarms getting in the way of things tonight like we had at Brass Monkey Leith last night. What happened? Well, there was a fire in the Church round the corner and some smoke had made its way into the pub. There was no harm and no damage to anyone in the pub but the Fire Brigade cleared the pub while they dealt with the fire, and this was going to take a few hours, so we cancelled the quiz. Sorry about that but you can see it was out of our control. We’ll call it a rollover and if you were in and you had a full pint, maybe have a wee word with the staff next time you’re in and you can probably get a freebie.

Anyway: Tonight:

Portobello Tap 6pm (with Isla)

Tonight’s jackpot: £30
Free answer: One of the MUSIC round answers is ONE REPUBLIC (see video below)


NOTE – Isla doesn’t have a card reader yet so it’ll be cash only for the jackpot round tonight at Porty Tap.


Safari Lounge 9pm (with me)

Tonight’s jackpot: £30
Free answer: One of the PICTURE round answers is SPAIN.

One Republic – one of those earnest American bands. To my ears they sound all the same: Train, Maroon 5, etc etc. However, OneRepublic (for indeed they write it without the space) have more than 3 BILLION YouTube views for this song alone and there are thousands of comments from people calling it a “masterpiece”. So I guess people CAN tell the difference. Anyway, being as objective as I can, it’s not a masterpiece. This is a masterpiece
