East Beers - Wednesdays - The Chesham Arms E9 6DU

A lovely evening. By the end we were the only people in the pub. nice.

On the way home I decided it looked nice and so next week we will be at The Hemmingway on Victoria Park Rd.

Now, to explain this chairman business. This is something I hope will keep going as it is way cool. There was a Monopoly 'chance' card on the table which said "You have been elected Chairman of the board" I had the Chairman card and did not have to buy a drink almost all night.
Therefore to formalise this process, as outgoing chairman I establish the following rules.

1. one person is the chairman. They have the Chairman card.
   
2. Every time anyone buys a round, however small, they offer the chairman a drink.
   
3. The chairman may refuse a drink, and they may of course buy a round of their own.
   
4. The chairman's only duties are to hold the names-in-a-hat election for the next week's chairman.
   
5. The sitting chairman may not put their own name in the hat. No person may be chairman for 2 weeks in a row.
   
6. The punishment for buying a round that did not include the chairman is to not have your name in the hat for the following week.
   
7. two names should be drawn - chairman and vice chairman. In the event of the chairman being indisposed the vice chairman should take their place.
   
   

I will laminate the card.
Next week's chairman is Betty, with Eggpie as vice chairman.

1. what if you don't like the chairman?
   
2. what if you can afford to buy anyone else a drink?
   
3. would'nt this exclude others who aren't interested in playing but just wished to hang out?
   
   

i don't mean to ruin the ideas or proceedings but just wondering
