Quiz Night with Saucy Orchestras

We teamed up with Jerry, Jules and Ollie to make Saucy Orchestra.  Lucky for us because they carried us to victory.  Ollie doesn't even jot down the questions, he just writes the answers directly on the answer sheet as they questions are being asked.  So when I told him the few that I knew he would just give me a withering look and say "Already got it."

This is a shot of the girls doing "confused".  Who looks the most confused?



 This is like US magazine's section - Who wore it best?  Jules and Bill trying each other's glasses.
 In the background behind Bill are out pals Jason and John.  They had the best team name of the night:
My Sister Can't Wrestle But You Should See Her Box.
 I wonder what Jerry and I are talking about here?  Looks intense.  Ollie seems a little scared.
Ok let's get on with the quiz….

Who played JR Ewing in Dallas?

This is Bill's favorite bar maid, Marlin.
 Ann Maria knows how to celebrate a pub night win - - with a McFlurry.  I'm please to say that I've never even had a McFlurry but she was certainly enjoying it.
There are a LOT of pictures from last night that didn't make the blog.  As you can probably guess, I don't look good in most of them.  But I'm thinking that at the end of our run here I'll do a Quiz Night Blooper Blog Post with all the horrible and hysterical photos that are usually the result of two large glasses of Malbec.
