Hi folks,
Just a quick one to say that I'm unfortunately not going to have time to post my weekly roundup this weekend. I've been rushed off my feet sorting out the quiz I'm hosting tomorrow and contending with an unusual level of exhaustion (I slept for 11 hours last night...) so in the hour or so I've got left before I head out to another quiz, I'm gonna need to chill out for a bit.
I'll try and post it during the week, or else as a double update next weekend.
The adventures of a mercenary, sometimes solo pub-quizzer in pursuit of trivia, fun, socialisation, and perhaps even a little glory! A place to discuss all things "quiz"!
