......TV and comfort food.....

Still smarting over last nights loss.....playing the quiz through in my head....spotting where we lost points we should have won....talked ourselves out of right answers.....didn't pick up bonuses.

The score went like this
Round 1 8-8
Round 2. Won 9-6
Total 17-14
Round 3 Won 6-5
Total 23-19
Round 4 Both teams wiped out 0-0
Total 23-19
Round 5 Drew 8-8
Total 31-27
Round 6 Lost 6-11
Total 37-38
Round 7 Won 7-5
Total 44-43
Final round Lost 5-7
Final score 49-50

We lost it on round 6....4 points for getting the answer from the first clue....2 points if you have the second clue....we played too cautious....we had three 4 point answers, but we didn't risk it and went for the second clues....the opponents had to gamble and did on on question....and picked up a bonus point for a question we got wrong....but if we'd only gone for one of our gambles we'd have won by one!


So tonight it's been exactly what the title says.....I haven't eaten a kebab for about 8 years....but one of the fishing guys told me about this fantastic kebab he'd had at the weekend....what he didn't tell me was just how big it was....and it's in a naan bread not a pitta!

Couldn't finish it....it 's in the fridge....it might be going to work with me tomorrow for lunch!
