Next Quiz - Sunday 13th March

Due to other events happening in the pub there will be no quiz on the 1st Sunday in March - we're shifting to the 2nd Sunday for one month only.  Otherwise it'll be the same format:

Kick off at 8pm

£2 per person to enter, max 5 to a team

Lots of prizes!

The Landor is on Landor Road, where it meets Willington Road, two minutes walk from Clapham North tube station (Northern Line)

The quiz is a no iPhone zone (I should probably try to find a picture of an iPhone 4.0). It just spoils it for everyone. If you see someone on another team using their iPhone then take a picture of them with your phone. If we all work together we can beat this.

& the winners were...

Les, with 96% (!), followed by I wish this microphone was a penis (ho ho) with 88%, and Universally Challenged with 81%.

Camenbert were the best team of two, with 79%

Astonishing achievement by Les, as there were only 3 of them.  They were in clear view of us for the whole quiz, and there wasn't any mobile phone activity, in case you were wondering.

So where did they fall down?  The music round.  They didn't know name of songs by Blink182, Fatboy Slim or Tinie Tempah, and name of They Might Be Giants
