Hoorah, another week, another victory. However, some might say that our victory by 1 1/2 points was kind of hollow because we collected 3 points for answers that were wrong. Not me though. Woohoo - £41 in the curry night pot.
A few awards:
* The Mr A "Are You Sure?" award - Mr A for his answer "Ich Bein" to what is wrote on the George Cross. We felt it would be strange that the German words for "I leg"* would be used on an award given to civilians who displayed bravery during the blitz, but Mr A. was so certain, it was hard to argue otherwise. The right answer was "For Gallantry".
* The Over Generous Marker Award The guys marking our paper, as previously mentioned. Answers they gave us marks for included "Glove" when the right one was "A dive", "Bill Turnball" when the correct answer was "Christopher Meyer" (we actually spotted this one and deducted it) and "a web" for a "ball of venomous material". Cheers lads.
The final quiz is next sunday, a Christmas special. Can we break £50?
* In his defence, Mr A might have been thinking of Ich Dien, which means I Serve
