Down at the Vic

A good atmosphere at last night's pub quiz at the Victoria Works in Studley. The beer was in excellent condition; and I just about survived the hot chilli pork scratchings. As it was the bank holiday there was a popular turnout for the quiz; although we arrived early the tables were for massive groups and it didn't seem right to sit at those just for a group of three. So we sat around the corner but could still hear the action; though the questions were fairly tough and we only got a quarter of the questions in the general knowledge round. Still, we did very well in the pictures; and did very well with the bonus question. We even managed to beat two teams. But we had some very strange taxi drivers about that evening. The first one needed directions to where we were going despite managing to find us OK and also having driven us there a month ago. He arrived very quickly but apparently forgot to collect someone from a previous booking. The driver coming back seemed desperate for us to leave despite telling us he was quite quiet with bookings that evening. Very strange.
