Jules invited us to an extra quiz night tonight - a couple that used to live on the mews and do quizzes with this group at another pub were back for a visit and staying with Jean and Roger at the end of the mews. (The visitors were Steve and Margaret - Americans who both went to Northeastern and Steve works for the same company as I do). So Jean created her own quiz and booked the upstairs library at the Victoria. The pictures are dark because the room is as it sounds - a dark paneled, low lit room with leather chairs. Very cosy for a party but not good for photos without a flash.
This is our quiz master tossing one back.
She is a fellow Archer listener but that didn't help me here. We teamed up with Jerry and Jules and still came in dead last. I guess it's lucky for us that a lot of these folks don't come to the quiz on Tuesday night.
