Quiz 397

I don't know how long it will take to type out and publish this post as my PC is running a little slow at the moment (I'm downloading porn shhhhh!) Firstly, a message for Pete of The Alliance. If you made it this far you're doing really well. You need the Golden Key from the Leprechaun King to get to the next level through the Emerald Door. We only had 5 teams at The Albert last night which was a little disapointing. However, It wasn't a bad night. First place went to The Alliance with 93pts, VCJD came second a point back on 92 and in third place were Velcro Advocados (Who've been away far too long. Welcome back.) with 75pts. Just before Questions and Answers, (must remember to put the Caricature answers in for Bill and his smartarse mate his words not mine.) Anyone wishing to contact me for any reason between now and next Thursday my email as always is quizard_97@yahoo.co.uk

Finally, A cautionary word about the joke of the day at the end of this post. It is photograph taken by a friend of mine that graphically shows a road traffic accident. Anyone who is easily upset should not look at it. Many of the victims can be seen in various states of distress. My friend assures me that after taking this picture he stayed at the scene for several hours giving mouth-to-mouth to several of the survivors.
