TUESDAY NIGHT QUIZ

Over the summer a few galant members of Vilnius HHH (and assorted others) have gathered at ManoAlibi uder the name 'THE COLONIALS' to participate in the Tueday night Quiz. Starting at 19:00 ish the quiz is mostly attended by Lithuanians with the Colonials being the only English speakers... but the questions are repeated in English...

Unlike the Dubliner Quiz there is no bonus round and no plus / minus points depending on team size... resulting in some quite big teams (which has it's disadvantages as there ain't a lot of space!)

The Colonials do OK.... normally finishing in the top half of the 17 or so teams but we are gradually creeping upwards having finished 2nd last week...

Over a quarter year a first place finish gives a team 5 points, 2nd 4 points down to 5th 1 point. The top 8 over the quarter (Mondays & Tuesdays) go into the final....

Us Colonials only joined in about half way through but we have finished the quarter in 21st place out of over 100 teams...... not too bad....

If anyone is interested in joining The Colonials drop us a mail.... 'fraid it's not really possible for anyone 'just to turn up' due to space restrictions :)

And the food is some of the best in Vilnius.... unusual & good value. The stuffed mushrooms are number 1 :)
