turning seven shades of blue
Victory once again in the Paxton Arms, this time over the reigning pub-quiz champion. It's not just an anomaly now. It's a fucking streak.
I enjoyed this one particularly as victory depended upon my knowledge of the answers to some particularly geeky questions, such as Charles de Gaulle's last words ("It hurts"), the last James Bond movie to star Roger Moore (A View To a Kill), and the identity of the person who had a hit in 1984 with "99 Red Balloons" (thank you, inhabitants of Granby Gardens).
Afterwards, TK & I argued with Jamie about whether our skills would translate into copywriting and I coined my first slogan: "Tampax - put something inside you that actually serves a useful purpose."
I should do this for a living.
I was also informed that the word "plinth" is apparently one of the sexiest words in the English language. I'm fairly sure this isn't so. Tell me I'm wrong?
