Why Don't We Do it on the Road (1.43)

Having played poorly in a poorly umpired game at Clapham Common South the team repaired to The George to participate in Quiz Night. The quizmaster is a charming blonde dreadlocked fellow of a certain age, who, in spite of his advanced years, has moved with the times, including a Name That iPod round among the usual pot pourri of Current Affairs, Sport and Questions About Canada. The Tecumsehs appropriated an entire corner of the pub using a technique that might be best described as Aggressive Colonisation. And then we took it home. Our record now stands at 3-0, meaning that we are marginally better at answering trivia questions than we are at playing softball in the Fourth Division (12-2). Next week we return to the friendly confines of Clissold Park, swapping traffic fumes for swarms of tiny biting insects, and defeat (on the diamond) for certain victory.
