Very True Things
“He talks to himself sometimes because he’s the only one who understands what he’s saying.”

Pub Quiz last night. We won. Again. Only three of us this time so less of a walkover then last time, and the questions were a little bit trickier, but still a respectable 64/80. The prize has grown and is now three bottles of cava.

Jolyon and I drank the bar dry of two bitters. We started in IPA, a good session beer, but that ran out. So we switch to Spanker, an interesting beer that grows on you after the first pint, but that ran out. So we finished the night with Hobgoblin, a serious beer. Ouch.

The last round was interesting, ten winners of the Oscar for Best Song. Given the year, song and artist, can you name the film? We only got five right. How well can you (and that means you, not Google, Wikipedia, etc.) do?
