Let’s get down, let’s get down to quizness
Afternoon! It’s Friday 13th, but hopefully this week’s pub quiz isn’t too freaky for you.
I do think it probably falls in the upper half of the difficulty levels though. Those of you who have paid attention to some of the news across politics, sports, and entertainment this week will be at an advantage.
If you love your Channel 4 sitcoms you’re also in luck, and the Potterheads amongst you should finish strongly this, so I reckon most of you will have at least one big round.
And those of you that have a stinker, there’s always next week. Hold on to that disappointment and use it as motivation to crush your fellow quizzers and assert your group chat authority once more.
Away with ya!
