Cue Queen ...

A bit of mild bragging: my team are now both the General Knowledge Quiz and the Sports Quiz champions of the local quiz league, apparently the first time it's been done. At last! I can quit with a clear conscience now. :)

Three close matches from the quarter-finals onward, and finally in the ... er, final, I had a decent game and got us across the finish line by knowing the name of the art movement founded by Matisse. See, that History of Art course I went along to as a favour to someone (and then found I enjoyed it) actually worked! Oh yes, and the winning question in the semi also fell nicely: "Whose godfather is Sirius Black?" Obviously I pounced on that like a lion on an antelope. :)

yay, well done! As it happens, I found myself in a pub quiz last night, for the first time in ages, and really enjoyed it (though there were only two of us and we didn't do brilliantly. Sport, as ever, the big problem - should have had you with us!)

Thanks. :) I'm the weak link in the sports section though -- I'm not bad, and I got some I knew in the final, but I used to be a lot better (probably before most events went on Sky). Fortunately the other three are excellent. :D
