Two recently-notified Monday quizzes:

Cos Bar, 148 Queen Victoria Street, EC4V 4BY:  6.30 start, £2 entry, no details of prizes.
The Shaftesbury, 534 Hornsey Road, N19 3QN.

And the Washington in England’s Lane has its quiz on a Tuesday – check listings for details.

For fans of Space Invaders, I’ve been in a pub where a notice says you get £100 if you beat the landlord’s score.  More details if you mail me.

Now to the second of my ‘Thirteen Questions’ Challenges.  Here’s where I give you clues at the rate of about one a week leading to an answer.  Guess when and as many times as you like and at the end there’sll be a small prize.  The last winner got his picture in the posting!
