where are the pub quizzes in the area?

[Private Storm]

The Landor does a quiz on Sunday nights IIRC

 

[colacubes]

i do if the buses aren't fucked.

Sweet If they have a music round we are so all over it

 

[sleaterkinney]

I might be, but Sober january might not be the best time for me to start attending a pub quiz.

C'mon you know you want to. We won't all be drinking anyway

 

[Ms T]

Can't do tonight but does anyone fancy the Elm Park Tavern quiz tomorrow night?

We do! It will be the first real test of the New Year no-drinking thing. What time?

We can give each other moral support.

I think it's meant to start at 9 so maybe meet there at 8.30?

I think it starts a bit earlier than that - shall we say 8? And we're going to see Sherlock Holmes at the Ritzy this afternoon if you fancy it. (I know, but best of a bad bunch.)

8's fine. Cannae do the cinema but I'll be interested to hear what you think as I quite fancy seeing it.

I could be tempted by this - room for one more?

Of course Not sure if there's a team size limit but if there is we'll just have to split into 2 teams or something.

 

[ethel]

how are the buses looking?

I've not been out but I believe the buses are running ok on the main roads but the P4 and the like are a bit more ropey because of the snow out east of here.

 

[gaijingirl]

I've been out and the buses are fine.

I'd really like to come to this but unfortunately can't tonight - or at least wouldn't be able to get there till too late really. Shame as it's right up my street (in many ways). We tried to go to a few last week but they were all cancelled - all the pubs we called said they were starting up again this week though. Good luck!

 

[colacubes]

For anyone else who is at a loose end sarahluv and I are meeting at the Elm Park Tavern at 6.45

I saw a couple of P4s too - main roads all seem well gritted and ice free at the moment... beware of the pavements though - skating rinks on minor roads...

 

[el-ahrairah]

Right, I'm coming to this, not seen you lot since NY and was supposed to be meeting a so-called friend tonight but I think I'd rather do this. They can wait for me for a change.

 

[Crispy]

Hmmm, well I could make this too
no promises, but I will try

6.45? I'll still be eating my tea then!

What time does the quiz actually start? I'd like to get down to the Rest Is Noise after as there's some good bands on tonight.

 

[Biddlybee]

I quite fancy a quiz (not that I'm any good!), but a shit day and a long bus journey home means I probably won't come out again once I get all warmed up maybe next week, or one of the other quizzes... will keep an eye on the thread.

 

[mango5]

We accidentally did the one the The Bear on Camberwell New Road a little while back 9we were there for someone else). The fella who runs it was really friendly. I'd definitely go there again if anyone else wants to.

Official start time is 9pm - but best get there a little earlier to guarantee a seat...

 

[fogbat]

I'm going to pass after all, sorry.

It'll take ages to get there from Peckham, especially in this weather.

I'd definitely be interested in taking part in any other pub quizzes coming up, though.

ooh I might be up for that, probably not very useful mind...

 

[boohoo]

we won! we won! ..well, some of us won... ( we came second!!)

 

[fogbat]

For those around East Dulwich way, there's a good pub quiz in the East Dulwich Tavern each Sunday evening.

We've won it once (£50 quid bar tab as prize) and come second (a bottle of champagne) another time.

We got the most questions right, but had a point docked for having one too many team members If only we'd written Kew Gardens instead of Kew!

Good fun though

And team breakaway deserve a mention for... for... um... how many points did they get again?

And whose fault was that then?

I don't think we did, anyway. The winning team only dropped half a point on the last round. We was beaten fair and square.

 

[colacubes]

I think it was about 3 points or something

I feel we were magnanimous in our victory with letting them share our beers

 

[ethel]

so where to next troops?
