Right. That's me up to date following installation of broadband (for which I waited 12 weeks to get some service from Virgin Media).

Sadly, it looks probable that The Bell & Bear quizzes will cease at end of this month. My daughter, the proprietor of the pub, is leaving the trade - another victim of the greed of pub companies (Punch). She has owned it since September 2001.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Chris and all my friends and contributors of the Quizmasters sites which I think are an invaluable aid to the composition of good quality and individually tailored quizzes.
