2001 Notes & Anecdotes
Quizmaster
Thursday pm. Supper in the Atlantic is followed by an evening introducing our new member (JPR) to the island hostelries. In the Mermaid we are encouraged by JPR to attack the Quizmaster gaming machine that is unattended and flashing in a quiet corner. As we are men of high intelligence we cannot possibly lose, can we? Yes, we can and do, failing repeatedly. However, a run of correctly answered questions develops but with £20 in our grasp, we are stumped. “State the blood pressure of a basking shark?” Given a choice of 3 possible answers Griff is confident and promptly hits button A, only to fail. |

At around 9.00pm we find ourselves in The Scillonian Club. The main bar is busy, so we sneak into the back room whereupon we play a hand of Irish Spoof. We did not know it was Irish Spoof at the start but some how we get the rules wrong and although it should be a game of elimination no one wins and the pot is handed over to the kitty. Death Star Found
According to “Il Vitg” (the Icelandic Daily Chronicle), workers at a Whaling Station in Southwest Iceland were excited to find Peter’s bat – named Death Star. Originally floated out to sea during a moving ceremony aboard Frazer’s boat in 1992 the bat has now lost its handle and the workers use the remaining V shaped wood as a ‘sytrwvyykk’ (a utility item for taking off boots). |
