I hadn't been to the Retro Bar for months and months and months but Scally and I ventured along last night, ostensibly to watch the regulars (Ian and Jonathan with Darren and Tony but sans David in a non-appearance shocker) take on all comers at the regularly scheduled Tuesday pop quiz. But we weren't allowed to just watch. Oh no. We had to participate. Dang.

So along with Mark, we formed a nice little triumvirate and proceeded to get our collective hides tanned (questions here). The team name - "The Losers, Baby" - was certainly appropriate, although I never did discover how far down the league we ended up: a score of 9.5 out of a maximum of 21.5 probably saw us near the arse-end of the pack. Never mind ... a good first attempt I thought (the winners only got 16.5 - the others, 15) and I had a fun time so I'll be back to try my hand again, no doubt. [Warning to any potential future team-mates: I confused Morten Harket with Adam Sandler - the signs aren't good]

It was then onto Barcode where by the stroke of midnight, Mr Green turned 40, right before our very eyes. And he doesn't look a day over 21 :) Also of note, people who compliment me out of the blue do indeed, as they say, rock.
