"It's a place in Australia."
That's the clue we were given last night at Trivia as a clue to the answer of "the Baffler", a multi-round side-quiz where clues are given out and the first team to write down the correct answer wins.
Given that that was all we had to act on, we dismissed filling anything in for it until later rounds, where we'd have more clues. But with the quiz lady prompting us to give it a shot, I wrote down the first place that came to mind.
"Byron Bay".
And that's how I won a bottle of wine in the first round, with only one clue to go on.
A complete fluke!
For the rest of the night, throughout all the other rounds, our team ("H.P. Pennypacker") was in the lead ... until we got to the last round, which was entirely concerned with cricket. Our combined nature as a group of drama nerds and dandy boys was exposed, and we were soundly drummed out of the competition.
Ah well, there's always next time. And until then, I have my fluke wine to comfort me.

yeh.. it was good... and then some... anyways, just reading that will.i.am has been cast in wolverine movie?? puh-lease....
oh i am annoyed i missed out on hanging with the dandy boys and answering questions although i know you or ben would have forced me back home to look up answers on the internet and text them to you.
What's funny is they don't even know which character will.i.am is playing. One place lists it as Wraith, the other as Kestrel, with different powers for both. Either way, I'm sure it's going to be a small role. I'm just excited about Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool (if that turns out to be true).
Yeah, you missed out, Li-Kim! With Bessie on your team, you're always guaranteed an entertaining time.
