Pub quiz at the Unicorn on 13th November 2013

Nine of us met up at the Unicorn in Dean Row (Wilmslow) for their weekly Wednesday pub quiz at 9pm.  The maximum team size was 25 which meant we didn't have to split in two.  The quiz was the usual multi-round format and we had questions on bank notes (the faces round), pop music, general knowledge, sport, films, geography and literature.

Sample questions:

- How many points would you score if you bowled a perfect game of ten-pin bowling?
- Which movie had the strapline "They'll never get caught.  They're on a mission from God"?
- If you headed due east from New York which country would you first arrive at?
- Who wrote Moby Dick?
- Which English actress is married to Tim Burton?

To our surprise we won, beating the twelve other teams!  That's two wins in our last three quizzes!  First prize was a £20 meal voucher or two bottles of wine.  We chose the wine (white and rose) and will take it to High Wray at the end of the month for our Christmas weekend.

Gordon was behind the lens... note the two wine bottles!
