Today is your last chance to enter the overachieving is overrated contest to win everything you need for a day off, including 1000 bucks, a beer fridge, bathrobe, slippers and a games system.

Live your dreams and go for it!

Anyway, multiple high fives to them!

Thanks to The Thornton Arms for being so very good to us and thanks to everyone who took part. Not just last night but over all six trivia nights – we couldn’t of done it without you. Well, maybe we could have but it would have been A LOT more awkward and kinda dull.

you are all champions in our beady eyes.
