The pub quiz at the Undercroft had a rather moderate turn out although there were quite a few first years about and enough for it to played fairly. Chris and Phil H were hosting whilst I was on a team with Stewart, Denis, Jay and Barry who it turns out did have Chris's mobile after the previous night's antics and had returned it to him.
Our team name was "How Many Irishmen Does It Take To Win A Pub Quiz" although we didn't win the prize for best team name, the prize itself being a fire exit sign stolen from the library.
One of the other team names was the rather distasteful "Chlymidia Crew" which included the current head of events at Smoke Radio but luckily they didn't win either although they were pretty close.
The rounds consisted of a musical intros round which we got all 10 questions, a sports round, a film and TV round and a general knowledge round as well as a picture round which people had to identify infamous figures around university where one of them happened to be your's truly.
Our team ended up winning once again splitting the jackpot of £23 that was on offer.
I went back at around 11pm to complete the CRB forms that I need to hand in at the primary school I'm helping out at whilst continuing my trawl through EWF's albums with "Head To The Sky". This was where the band started to show their jazzy latin side with tunes such as "Evil" and "Zanzibar". I'm rather surprised I haven't looked deeper into their individual albums until now but they've done so much great material which deserves more credit than they tend to get.
On a similar note it's my first soul show of the year tonight where I plan to play quite a lot of stuff from the best album of the summer "Moving With The Shakers" by The Sunburst Band who I was lucky enough to see live back in July.
I'm determined to really make this final year count even if I'm really tied up especially in the first semester but as I've mentioned before it's one of the "sole" reasons I enjoy being at University.
