Football and quiz - NO POKER!!

Someone requested more quiz updates as they didn't understand the poker stuff. I dunno who they are but I thought I'd oblige.

Played five a side tonight against probably the best team in the league, We actually did ok, we took a 1-0 lead when Ste's shot hit the keeper, the post, the keeper and bounced in somehow. Then Aaron thought it was a good idea to pass the ball across his own area straight to one of their players and it was 1-1. They scored again soon after and we were 2-1 down at half time.

Second half we started lively and were pushing forward, Tim played me down the left and I played it off the wall to him in front of goal but he kind of scuffed it, then I had the ball and could have played Tim in on the right or Ste to the left but went for goal and it was blocked.

Then we were attacking again, I had Ste to my right or Tim behind me to the left, I tried a backheel to Tim but totally fluffed it and they broke 3 on 1 and scored to make it 3-1.

I took myself off the pitch immediately cos was so annoyed with myself and it was soon 5-1.

I came back on and they scored again and we got one back late on thanks to a great finish from Tim so a 6-2 defeat but it wasn't too bad a performance and but for a few careless mistakes we could have gotten something from that one.

So straight to the quiz, via my flat because once again I'd forgotten my jeans and my shorts were a bit too short to wear at a quiz with so many middle aged women. And I've had my hair cut so I'd have been fighting them off with curly wurlys.

First round was general knowledge, we got 14/20 on this plus our bonus so scored 5. A few I was very happy with were Sid Snot was a creation of which comic? And how many cards in a Tarot pack? I won't put the answers up cos people might wanna guess them.

Ridiculous question of the night, What is a Falasha? Apparently it's an Ethiopian Jew!! I mean who the fuck would know that?!

Really can't remember any others from that round, 2nd round was entertainment, we got about 15/20 on this one, I was pleased with was 'What was Sharron Davies' name in Gladiators' That was our bonus so worth an extra 5. A few silly ones, like who played Alice in the 1972 film Alices adventures in Wonderland? Fiona Fullerton is the answer if anyone is interested. Also there was 'Which sitcom did Richard Wilson play a dr?' We put Happy when I laugh which was the theme music, it was actually called Only when I laugh, but he gave us the point.

Pictures and anagrams..... We got both anagrams but missed a lot of blonde women. The anagrams were 1980's adventure drama films.

1. AAAINNRRTUWY
2. CDEEEEHIRSTV

Good luck with those.

Music round we got 18/20 Thanks to things like Jason Donovan's sealed with a kiss and something by Christopher Cross. Aaron came through with several good answers like Lynn Anderson's rose garden and Tavares for something.

2nd, best we've done in a while.

Tomorrow is Farmers quiz so will update how that one goes.

I'm watching NFL tonight yay! come on Vikings, beat the Spackers for my bears!
