- Britannia Inn (26 Horn Street, Seabrook, Near) Quiz and dinner
Clare did the quiz at The Britannia last night. They drew but lost in the tie break. Not sure of the full details but doesn't sound like the deserved to get that far, they couldn't come up with the first name of Frankenstein, so plumped for Henry. And freakishly got it marked correct, as the name Henry was used in the film. No-one knows why the name was changed from Victor (in the book), it is a mystery of monstrous proportions.
The Incredible Hulk's real name was also fouled up in the same way. Though this did not form part of last night's quiz.
The sausage and mash was very nice apparently. GBP6 per head, including your food. Might well see you there on some future Wednesday...
