So last night I attended the Charity Pub Quiz at The Alexandra, raising money for Hungarian Orphans. There was a massive turnout and �300 was raised by beer swilling quizzers.

I was in a team with Steve, Brian and KJ and astoundingly , we won with a score of 41.5/50. We did learn that we know very little about Disney and the film characters but we knew virtually everything else between us.

We won a bottle of Champagne (put into the raffle as none of us likes it), a box of All Gold and a �25 M&S voucher! Steve took the chocolates home and the voucher went to KJ for his birthday next week.

In other news, I have finally worked out how to unzip all the files in a directory under Linux. I've written various little cmd line scripts to do it over the years and then today found that using the command "unzip \*.zip" (escaping the *) makes it process all the zip files in that directory. FFS! How come I didn't know that? Bloody computers...

My worry from yesterday was when my US TV shows would start airing again. Today Digg came to my rescue when someone posted this article - YAY!
