We've been regulars every Tuesday at the Fringe Bar for about a year now. Tuesday evening is when the pub holds trivia hosted by Mike Blades (who moonlights as an 80s DJ on the weekends). We always meet the same crew of friends there, order something from the bar menu (recommend the chicken parm) and have a glass or two of wine. I usually get a select few answers right..normally the pop culture ones like, "what was this name of this Jennifer Lopez song from 2002?" Luckily we have lots of trivia wizzes on the team to take care of the tough/random Qs. I enjoy doing trivia, but more so I enjoy this evening as a constant in my week. It's never a question whether people are going -- we always have a team there and I love that.
There's lots of pubs that hold trivia nights in Sydney. I know that the Light Brigade, London Hotel, The Royal Hotel and North Bondi RSL have trivia nights. I haven't been though..I'd say we're fiercely loyal The Fringe!
In other news, we went ice skating last weekend..at Bondi Beach! They Sydney Winter Festival has expanded to more locales through out the city this year. After skating while looking down at the beach and ocean, we headed to the 'ski chalet' which served mulled wine, german beer, bratwursts and dutch pancakes. It was some good, Southern Hemisphere winter fun.

Jul 20, 2010 at 3:03 AM What? I LOVE trivia! I am usually horrible at it though. I will have to see if there are any pubs in Neutral Bay that do this!
Thanks,
