Drivetime Sport’s Irish Soccer clips

Posted in Quizzes, tagged , , , , on March 30, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Somebody behind the scenes at Drivetime Sport on Radio One must be a quizzing fan.

It seems that Habitat for Humanity is inextricably linked with my quizzing at the moment.  Last night, less than two weeks since our event in Ennis, I found myself taking part in another Habitat quiz.  This time the venue was The Huntsman Inn, Galway. It was a nice, small quiz but run pretty well. I [...]

I know what you’re thinking. “Surely there can’t be any rounds left from the Habitat for Humanity quiz?!” Well, I’m afraid you’re wrong. And there’s still one to go after this!
