pub quiz...

Last night we went to the pub quiz at The Hook and Tackle with George and Richard.

It was a pub quiz with a difference, kind of like a cross between a pub quiz and bingo. Everyone gets a score card which have different numbered questions on and if you have that numbered question, you can answer it. There's 2 lots of prizes up for grabs, the first to get the "Top 2 Bottom 2" and a "Block of 6". We did manage to have a go at trying to win a couple of times but our answers were never fully correct!

The last game also had the "Jackpot" round. If you got the top, middle and bottom question within the first 5 questions asked you could win £200.

Luck was on me last night and the 5th question asked gave me my 3rd jackpot question. The questions I had to answer were;

1. What was the name of Captain Pugwash's ship?
2. What is the minimum age a US President can be?
3. Which MP was killed by a car bomb in 1990?

Unfortunately, I wasn't that lucky and only managed to answer 1 of the questions correctly.

It was a fun night and I think we may be off to try again next Sunday.

PS. In case you were wondering, the correct answers are - The Black Pig, 35 and Ian Gow.
