It's nice to know that the twin joys of quiz and pub culture are available to our friends on the other side of the globe. And if you're puzzled regarding one of the venues in the Klang Valley - CJ's Bistro - no, it's NOT the 'C.J.' of the De Mooi variety!

There appear to be some European expats attending this quiz!
The Star Online piece is something I came across thanks to Facebook connections with Movin Miranda, an ex-pat Indian quizzer. He has long and continuing associations with the Karnataka Quiz Association - that's the highly regarded, Bangalore-centred outfit who are organising and inviting us to participate in 'Mindsweep', the solo international quiz we're running alongside (i.e. after) our regular Quiz Grand Prix activities on 7 January 2012, in Coventry.
