Update - for complex reasons the next quiz will be on the 8th, and not the 1st of September
The quiz is (usually) on the first Wednesday of the month
Usual Ts and Cs:
Kick off at 8pm
£2 per player, maximum 5 to a team
The Bread and Roses is in Clapham Manor Street, off Clapham High Street
(Turn off the High Street when you get to the KFC)

The quiz is a no iPhone (& no Google Phone) zone. 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.
Friday 6 August 2010
