The Winner takes it all

Pub quizs are always good fun i find, last night i went along with CB to one in Midleton. Our team was made up of myself Chris, Paul and John (the latter three all teachers in midleton college).
Our luck was in the questions seem to be suiting us and after 4 rounds we were 31 out of 40 which doesn't sound great but it was joint second. the next three rounds we scored 29 out of 30 the picture round really going our way. Coming into the last round aware that we were 2 ahead nerves started to jangle it didn't help that the last round was a local knowledge round , chris literally bolting (ludcriously pretending his phone was ringing) out the front door of the pub and running up the town looking for the answer to one question, fate was to take a hand though knowing perhaps that we had blatantly cheated to get the answer we contrived to still get that question wrong.
the scores being called out we knew we couldn't be caught self- congratulatory badinage became the order of the day. After getting a warm round of applause we were presented with a bottle of jameson whicky each .. which will now be put on ice till the jazz.
