R.N.T - it's also a line from an Australian TV program called "The Footy Show". They sponsored a greyhound dog - greyhound racing is a sport - and named it NADS, which back in Oz, as it probably is elsewhere in this wonderful world, a shortened verison of the word "gonads". Hence, when the televised the race in which Nads was running (usually very lamely), they'd all shout "Go Nads".

Cheers, Mr. P

Please give us a full report of how it goes Ozchick. I'm curious to know what the limit is on team members and what sort of questions they ask.

Well

Not bad going for a first attempt (Equal second). If only there had been more general knowledge questions and less Singapore-based and Straits-times based questions we'd have had it:)

Is the pub quiz a weekly thing? I arrived in Singapore today from UK and would be interested in contributing some knowledge if there is another planned?

Great time!

It would be nicer if I could arrive on time, but I think this last minute things at work will happen until.... 2034?

Ok, just a short message, I'm going to start to read encyclopaedia. Non-stop until next tuesday. See you then
