The Dregs just missed out on the big money prize tonight, losing by a single point to the “Famous Five”. However we were more than happy to take home bottles of Newky Brown Ale. NormC was particularly pleased as he will be drinking SteveC’s as well.

A most satisfactory evening…
…as the Dregs record their first win of the year, thanks to some inspired guesswork, and voyages into our collective “mind palace”, resulting in a clear win by 2 points, and pushing last weeks winners “The Locals” back into second place.

The Dregs took home the free beer tonight, having talked ourselves out of several correct answers that would have meant we could have won easily. Instead we came one point behind worthy winners “The Locals”. I trust this is not setting a trend for 2012.
Cheers.

Last quiz
The Dregs, minus BeerLegKing who claimed to be incapacitated owing to over-indulgence in cocktails, managed only a close third place in tonights quiz.
See you all next year!
good news everyone…
… the Dregs came in 2nd place tonight, only a point or two behind the “Famous Five”, and arranged to defer their prize of free beer until next week. So we are expecting everybody to show up for the Christmas Quiz.

Bah!
The Dregs came joint second tonight with arch-rivals “The Famous Five”, and I went up for the tie break. The question was “In what year did the United Arab Emirates join the United Nations”. I guessed 1968, my rival 1972. In fact it was 1971, so they won the free beers and the Dregs walked home empty-handed.
My Tie-Break Tally now looks like this:
Won 10
Lost : 5

as expected…
… we didn’t win for a third week in a row, but somehow managed to come fourth despite being only three points behind worthy winners “The Locals”.
Dawkeye
And again……
The Dregs, much to their surprise, gained another win tonight, scoring 49 points to come joint first. We and another team fought it out over the following question : In what year was “The Far Pavilions” shown on TV? I guessed at 1982. In fact it was 1984, so we won the cash!
My Tie-Break Tally now looks like this:
Won 10
Lost : 4

Let joy be unconfined! The Mighty Dregs secure a victory by beating arch-rivals Philthy Phil and his Famous Five by a single point. Hurrah!
Dawkeye
We came second. Cheers!
