Rocking in home with a spot on the podium, The Comic Shop Villains took out the bronze in the Guildford Bowling League's trivia night for 2005.

Blasting out from the start, salt and vinegar crisps mixed with a plate of Doritos and a side of Twisties (cheese). Red was the fabric bleed for the night, every table sporting their blood on their sleeves. Playing on a handicap -- every other table had eight or nine -- the seven of the Comic Shop ran into the blaze.

Massive shock in the first round. Blank stares facing the answer sheet marked in a floundering effort for equal third last. With the fresh face of possible death at the hands, the Villains cranked out the uncanny with more and more useless fragments flying from all over the place. Logic is a mess.

Ever see the Addams Family car in the driveway?
Can a woman still breast-feed after cosmetic surgery?
Haven't you ever seen a horse and donkey spoon?

Facts, trivia and other irrelevant conversation information made for the night. Loud noises only up against it all.

From the depths of the first, the slow crawl back up the ladder was made on each round. A slight misstep taken in the fifth was a nerve wrecker. Only for a round though. Rocking in all the way home on the last round, jumping over the other tables with a stellar effort, third place at the end of the eight rounds of the night.
