Thursday, 4th December 2003 In December, we decided to see off the year with a Japanese Christmas Pub Quiz. The questions gave the Conversation Group members the chance to show off its knowledge of the British and Japanese Monarchy, of Popular Culture, and of social history. Native and non-native Japanese speakers alike were scratching their heads for the right answer, despite the provision of a multiple choice answer system. A round of drinks was presented to the team who had taxed their brains the most and who gave the most correct answers. PHOTOS ARE HERE! .
