'Vignette' which is a fancy word for 'short sketch' (should a particular Islington bartender be reading)
Yeah, so me and Rae-baby were sauntering around Islington yesterday, and happened upon a pub that is hosting a trivia night later this week. Rae approached the barman drying mammoth pint glasses while watching the football on SkyTV.
Rae: Hello! I just wanted to ask about the Trivia Night on Thursday.
Old barman: Oh yes?
Rae: I've got some friends coming, and just want to know if we need to book a table ...
Old barman: So, this Trivia Night is on this Thursday, you say?
Rae: Yep, the poster is out the front.
Old barman: Well, I don't know about a Trivia Night, but we do have a Quiz Night on Thursdays. Is that what you're after?

End.
Bah. So it wasn't really all that funny, but perplexing, yes.

Dear Momo, what a prat that bartender is.
I have a small favour to ask of you - just a question you may be able to help me with. But how can I contact you off-blog? my email is sillsbendATgmail.com - x x Laura
I emailed you but the message bounced, so I sent you a message on Flickr.
Nice to see that even the mentally challenged can get a job.
It wasn't the Hen and Chicken was it? The staff were always doughy there.
