Well, it was another complete waste of a Thursday night last night, with fun folks and amusing questions. I had a very good time this time, actually.

Almost as good as the time when my team was at trivia and it was the beer question and we had one it the week before and the week before that and the quizmaster was basically saying no way we could do it again. I can't lay claim to knowing the exact date but I knew the era.

Q. What year was canned food first invented?

A. Well I knew it was Napolonic but it was another team member who came up with 1812. Which was correct.

The quizmaster declared we had no life to know the answer and was quite astounded that we knew it.

Kate said she knew it because of the 1812 overture which is about Napoleon going into Russia.

So good on you. Lucky we can take our beer away and not drink at the pub otherwise I would definetly not take part as I don't drink beer.
