Firstly, let me say I have no idea what the comment is just below this post so click on it it looks dodgy to me. On Thursday we had nine teams which ended a bit of a lean period in the quiz and we had a three-way tie. VCJD, The Wedding Party and the Alliance (minus Margaret, so the lads were on there worst behaviour) all came top with 89pts each and I believe most or all of the winnings went to charity. Oh and i'd like to take this opportunity to thank The Quizards of Odds for the lovely gift of a beer mat and empty crisp packet that they left for me in their folder. (tossers).The Book Ends also turned up but didn't have my email address and couldn't let me know in advance so the Books and Authors guest round will have to be but on ice until they come again. Anyone wishing to contact me can do at quizard_97@yahoo.co.uk I've got absolutely bugger all done for this week's quiz so I'll have to have a good crack at it later today when I get back from doing the crossword with my friends (well my mate Steve and a obnoxious little troll called Jeff.) at Bonds. Okay, I need your help. At the beginning of next month Quizard will be 10 years old. 10 years since I did my very first quiz at the now defunct Dunky's in Bolebridge Street, Tamworth. So I would like some inexpensive ideas on how to celebrate this historic landmark.

Joke of the Day
A farmer and his brand new bride were riding home from the chapel in a wagon pulled by a team of horses, when the older horse stumbled.
The farmer said, "That's once."
A little further along, the poor old horse stumbled again.
The farmer said, "That's twice."After a little, while the poor old horse stumbled again.
The farmer didn't say anything, but reached under the seat, pulled out a shotgun and shot the horse.
His brand new bride yelled, telling him, "That was an awful thing to do."
The farmer said, "That's once."
