This Week I...

...tried the Fireman’s Arms Pub Quiz.

In my bid to try new things and have no regrets, I vow to do something new once a week.


Last week I went to the Fireman’s Arms for their pub quiz. Technically I have been to a pub quiz before but this time I went to a new location with a new team. So definitely something new.

The experience was awesome.

When we first arrived at what is a Cape Town bar landmark there was a moment of hesitation. The first thing I saw was gambling machines being played by what I can only assume were the bar’s first patrons from way back in 1864. They were still there when we left. Definitely part of the furniture. Personal opinion, gambling machines in bars totally freak me out.

After that though, the evening was fabulous. We enjoyed some delicious pizza, saw a real fireman, chatted with the best of my besties and our team managed a respective 13 out of 22 teams for the pub quiz.

New experience and great memories: check!
