Rubber rabbits, fantastic food, paper planes & century celebrations

So, that was IT then. 100 Quizzes (well, a few more but who counts) and look how many 'oldtimers' turned up to celebrate Ye Wilde One Hundred. Although the planning phase was a bit rough in patches, and the night started slightly chaotic, all turned out for the best. At least in my book :D
Massive thanks to all who made it, despite holidays, hot weather and other commitments. Extra special thanks to Franziska (without whom we might not have been able to twist rabbits' ears), Just Met Today's lads (without whom you would have had to eat half of your food cold) and of course super special thanks to Eoin (who not only juggled sausages, steaks & hot potatoes but benches too, and cleaned up our mess in the end), Jens (who was leider locked away in the kitchen but helped us LOADS with preparations and contributed super lecker minty Tzatziki and the lovely marinated veggies I never got to try). And last but definitely not least HUGE round of applause to Gemma & Rebecca who kept us all nicely watered throughout the night and not once lost the Überblick.
Much fun was had by all (as some of the pics below show) and Just Met Today proved not only very hilfsbereit but also brainy and brawny, winning not only the paper plane precision flight round (we shall do that again soon ;)) but the whole Century Quiz. RESPECT!























Below a few pics (I have some 150 more but no time to shop/post them).. more in the FB group courtesy of Franziska. If you have any nice ones you took on the night - do send or post. PrettyPlease.
This weeks sees the return of the Champions League Season 8. Only 3 games left and it looks increasingly as if DAQ will be owners (temporarily) of the new trophy. So far we only have 4 teams (and two maybes) in the book so watch this space, WQ#101 might still get cancelled. Gehirnzellenmassaker have until tonight to send me their 3 Yogi suggestions.













That's it for now, see you Thursday or some other day.
Oh, and if you want to start Thursday with 2 points - predict the outcome of tomorrow's Mike Ashley Clubs Clash (Rangers F.C. - Newcastle Utd.). 1 point for correct result (win/draw/lose), 1 point for correct score. Game starts Tuesday 8.45 CET at Ibrox. Mail/Message/Comment here. BY TUESDAY 8pm.
