Hi Phil,

>>It didn't seem worth our team appealling.  We knew we wouldn't win 
the "Brains of Brass" after they asked the first question...

"Name the Roman natural historian who was killed in the second 
erruption of Pompei ?"<<

We didn't get this one....but surprised ourselves with 6 out of 10 in this
round (should have played our joker on this<G>)

>>.and when Maureen answered the question of Alice Coopers real name 
as 'Roy Newsome' I put down my pencil and got another round in.<<

Another bad round for us (wasn't this one of the last 5 questions of a
Music round?)

After our good start we just bumbled along with average scores to finish
5th or 6th (I think).
Probably the beer starting to affect us adversely! ...trouble is I couldn't
claim this as I was the taxi driver and stayed sober!<G>

>>Still, a great night out - thanks C.o.B.<<

Good fun and also a good excuse for another curry on the way home! :-)

And we were worried we didn't know enough about brass banding!<G>. 

A bit of an experience for us country types venturing into the "big bad
city" of Birmingham.

Thanks C.o.B. for organizing this!

Cheers
