....All in all I'm just furniture....

This will be a short blip tonight because I'm incandescent with rage after tonight's quiz.

We are now 2nd in the League....we lost by 6 points....because the questions were so unbalanced..........it was ridiculous!

As usual being the away team we opted for the first set of questions......so did all the other away teams in the other matches...all the home teams won (except for the game between the two bottom teams which ended as a low scoring draw)....by substantial margins.

Which questions did for us?

1. Which British Prime Minister's father said to him(as a child) "If you do not grow up to be Prime Minister I will beat you soundly"?
2. Which flag consists of a blue bar, a yellow bar and another blue bar, with a Trident in the centre?
3. In which city was a councillor 'sacked' for referrring to a black opponent as a coconut.
And the absolute killer.............................
4. Which 1930's Boxing Heavyweight World Champion claimed to have taken up the sport because while on benefits he found no milk on the doorstep one morning?

Answers
1. Robert Peel
2. Barbados
3. Bristol
4. James Braddock

Remembering that questions are supposed to be matched and equal our opponents got.

1. Which British Prime Minister during the reign of George 3rd was lampooned in a song that referred to him as a school boy?
2. What name was given to the British jet liner that had three engines at the rear of the plane?
3. In the song "Barbados" what was the name of the airline?
4 Joe Bugner defeated two British Heavyweight Champions and ended their careers, Henry Cooper was one , who was the other?

Answers
1. Pitt the Younger
2. Trident
3. Coconut Airways
4. Brian London.

See how our questions 2 and 3 gave away their answers? See how their PM question suggests our youngest ever PM? See how their boxer question gives nationalities and a clue by saying two boxers and then revealing the name of one?

Even the opponents agreed the questions weren't fair ....but.....Hey what can you do?

The photograph is for those of you who wanted to know what we bought at Ikea at the weekend. It's actually supposed to stand upright but the boss likes it better like this.

Das vidanya.....it's time for a large vodka and a fag !!!!!!!!
