Super-fat-trivia-Tuesday. Shall we bring beads?

Well, we didn't need to bring beads. Our prior teammates and current rivals had a ton of them.

Our team of 5 did alright. I think we came in, what, 5th place? Alas, no more shall we have a chance at "Strung Out On Hoobastank The String Quartet Tribute CD" sad.gif

Anxious to see what takes its place this week?
That previous one had been around for three years. Retirement was due.

Wasn't he going to put up "Fade to Bluegrass: The Bluegrass Tribute to Metallica"

Or was it "Pickin' on Pink Floyd: A Bluegrass Tribute"

We need to get some fresh blood down there! C'mon everybody! Come on down!

The other Daniel wanted the porn. Even if he doesn't know it, he badly needs it.

Fish and chips is just what you need for your recovery.
Hope you enjoyed your day to its fullest.

Wow did you see the rather lukewarm at best review in the taste section of the Bee today? I am somewhat familiar with Alan's review style, and because I have never been to the Streets Of London, cannot say a thing about it. You comments, please

In addition to the fish and chips (which is awesome) I've had the Cornish pastie and the steak and mushroom pie. The former was pretty much a pot pie, nothing impressive. I liked the latter but Mylo seemed offended it didn't have kidney. The Scotch eggs are good. The service is as described, the staff doesn't circulate except to bring out the food and bus dishes.

I'm not sure what's lukewarm about the review, it seemed pretty satisfied to me.

Darth you are probably correct, however a 2 star rating is not something to be really proud of in this very competitive food environment. May I quote
