Quiz nights, with good ol' Graham and Carol

If it's Tuesday night, it must be QUIZ NIGHT at the Safe Harbour Pub! Thanks to the super Landlords Graham and Carol, the place is bustling, so one needs to get in early, to get the best tables.
It's a bit of a hike up the hill (I like to call it the mountain) but it's worth it.
Our quiz team name is THE SPONGE HEADS, Dino says that his brain is like a small sponge, that has become completely saturated. He has not been able to absorb or retain any new knowledge that he's acquired since the mid 1980's.
His field of expertise is the life and times of Bjorn Borg, gondola questions and space shuttle crashes.
Needless to say, he's not much help at the table, but he's pretty enthusiastic, plus he buys the drinks. 
It all kicks off at about nine o'clock at the Safe. The pens NEVER work well and people are forever chatting when Graham is reading out the questions, but we keep coming back for more.

We know we don't stand a chance, Dino has finally realised that the questions are culturally biased... "Why don't they ever ask about Italian wines?"
So come and see my little half Italian, as he waits keenly for the question "Who was Wimbledon champion from 1976 to 1980 ?" to be asked.
