The Wheatsheaf, Vauxhall

Hi Folks

The Wheatsheaf had a music night last Saturday - a great female jazz singer and her equally accomplished keyboard man playing some wonderful jazz classics (including one of my personal favourites ' The Girl from Ipanema ') as well as a young duo on guitar and tambourine working their way through all kinds of great stuff - rock ballads, funky tunes and so on.

The place was rocking and the atmosphere was

Music (of all different sorts) will be a feature in the coming months so watch this space for details !

In the meantime the Quiz will be starting in earnest this Sunday at 6pm

The format will be the same as before (4 seperate rounds, 2 of which will be "general knowledge" while the other two will vary from picture rounds to special rounds on subject like 'Crime and Punishment', and, in the very near future, Music rounds)...

Prizes, for the winner of each round will include cash, drinks and each week there will be an over-all winning prize.

This Sunday's overall prize will be a meal for two (including wine).

Here's hoping to see you all on Sunday then.
This week's specail rounds will be on 'Food and Drink' and 'The Americas'.

Dear Alpha
You seem to have made the same mistake as DoubleDutch or whatever he called himself (I can't even be arsed to scroll up and check).
The Pubquizmaster is a long time drinker in the Wheatsheaf and has produced a Pub Quiz there for a period of roughly 16 months .
I (the pubquizmaster) am NOT an owner, part-owner or even employee of the "gaff" - a phrase beloved of mockneys and other pretentious types.
I am pleased you were "impressed" by my "huge range of positive adjectives" (did you really think I was going to use negative ones ?)but what about those superbly inventive adverbs ?
Since you clearly have an aversion to the Wheatsheaf, why, one wonders, do you wish to "come a- drinking" there again anyway ?
Whatever, you will be welcome to a free pint if you turn up this Sunday - the money will come straight out of my own pocket...but I should say the the fact your mum lives next to Steve Chalmers doesn't actually prove you are a Celitic fan now does it
PS Are/were you stationed at sme place as DoubleTrouble ?
