Some other person hosts on the other nights and so far we haven't felt up to trying him out. The last time we attended a quiz night here it finished so late. Jason promised that this time we would start no later than 9pm (advertised time was 8pm), but we ended up having to wait for some other teams and still started close to 9pm.
