On Thursday night during the pub quiz in my local the following question came up:-

If someone was a hostelatalyst (may not be the exact correct spelling) , what would they be interested in ?

And when the answer came ' Someone who studies Pub Signs', my team collectively looked at me wanting to know why I didn't know it..

Never heard of it and I can't find anything remotely close coming up on Google and Wikipedia..

Seems like one of those supposedly real but generally made up words that used to pop up on 'Call My Bluff' to me, but interested if anyone has a greater knowledge than we did on Thursday Evening...
