What a scorcher
I’m not just referring to the weather, which got silly earlier this week (anything above 30C is too hot and I won’t hear otherwise). No, I’m also on about this week’s JOE Friday Pub Quiz. It’s sizzling, this week. You’re gonna work up a sweat with it.
So, how about a round on ice lollies for you? A blast of cool nostalgia to remind you of summers gone. by. And then its five questions about ol’ Mother Nature.
Grab some suncream, stick your shades on, and bask in the warm glow of the pub quiz.
