World Quiz Championship today/tomorrow. Every time I do it, I think that 50% would be a decent score. Then I remember that I've only got anywhere near that sort of score once. Also, it's Cup Final day. I'll have to watch that when I get home I suppose. Someone's going to win something, but not me!

Brilliant, my favourite answer from the music round that I've had for a while: "No woman, no crime". #quiz
