That was the week that was.

Monday saw a short trip to 'Morrisons', and in the evening, a home Quiz League match versus 'Sports and Social'. We lost 73-63, so the poor run continues. In the 'Mystery round'. We were given cryptic clues associated with Films. 'Eggs that are unwashed' was 'The Dirty Dozen', 'Unruly Grapes' was 'The Wild Bunch', you get the drift. One question which nobody got was' 'Lion is pleased at devouring dead Zebra'. The amazing answer was 'Gladiator'.
Tuesday saw another bout of extreme pain, and depression. I watched 'Transformers Revenge of the Fallen' to try and lift the gloom. After my medication. Wednesday and Thursday were the usual 'Hangover' period where on top of my pains, I had to suffer headache and nausea. I was also pissed off when attempting to watch a 'DVD' of 'The Double Deckers'. My wife had bought it for me at Christmas, and although sealed, contained only One disc of what should be a 'Double Disc' set. Thursday also saw my anxiety and depression hit new lows to the point of feeling suicidal. I don't really know how much more of these health problems I can cope with. At least I have some Quizzes to look forward to. Tonight sees a 'Burns night' Quiz at Lichfield 'Guildhall'. In the past. Similar events have attracted 25 + teams, and have been well organised. I will be uncomfortable no doubt on the chairs so will have to move about between rounds. Negotiating the steps will also be a nightmare, and will take ages to ascend, but I must push myself a little or I will be a 'Cabbage' sooner rather than later. Sunday is the normal Fortnightly Pub Quiz, and Monday is a Quiz League home game against the mighty 'Clifford Arms'.
