Quiz news:Musselburgh quizzing on Thursday nights is BACK. Quizmaster Brigid was left hanging after the unfortunate closure of the Fisherrow Tap in December, but The Willow quickly swooped in and have booked her for the same time on the same night: Thursdays at 7.30pm.
The new era begins tonight. The Willow doesn’t have a phone number (something I’m seeing more of these days) but you can book a table on their website.
=================
Meanwhile, one of the younger and more naïve bar staff member asked me last night “Do you make any money out of the quizzes?” which rather took me aback.
I said “Yes, yes I do”
It’s kind of the point of doing it all. I have a regular bills. I have a daughter.
I asked him what he thought I was doing it for if I wasn’t getting paid. He said “Maybe I thought it was a passion project.”
Blimey. I mean, I ENJOY doing the quizzes, but I ain’t going out and doing nine of them a week for nothing. Good grief.
