It’s been some time since we faced the Cock-A-2 who moved to the Cock from their old haunt The Castle – always been a tough team to beat and after two consecutive losses the Lemmings were not brimming with confidence. It was interesting to note that the quiz league has now become an international event with American spectators and another supporter listening to Liverpool against Real Madrid.
We found both sets of questions very good although some had
everyone scratching their head, in particular the largest lake in Europe - they were however well balanced and very few did not get a correct answer. It was interesting to learn the name of the inventor of plastIcine!!
Breaking with tradition the Lemmings were ahead at the end of the Specialist rounds with 57 to 46 taking the General Knowledge with 81 to 70. Both Bob and Tomo scoring in the 30’s.
It was a very pleasant atmosphere with lots of laughter, particularly 
as Bob reminded us of some of his old jokes
, and the Robinson’s Dizzy Blonde was on good form.
Individual scores were Bob 15/24, Wendy 9/6, Nick 9/9, Tomo 15/18; conferred 3/16 and pass-overs 6/8. The Cock-A-2 picked up 6/4 pass-overs.
Final score 138 to 116.
The evening ended with a fine selection of sandwiches – many thanks to the Cock and the Cock-A-2 for a most enjoyable evening. Liverpool lost too.
