South's Christmas Gathering! Coach and Horses 2011-12-19

OK the rules may seem a little ... complex but it's pretty straightforward really.

Bad Santa:

1. all attendees bring a WRAPPED gift, to an agreed value - perhaps £10.
   
2. everyone is given a number (randomly selected from a hat)
   
3. in number order each person may open a gift, or steal a gift already opened by a preceding player (<obviously doesn't apply to player 1).
   
4. if player has been pinched from, they may pinch another, or open a further gift. Only when everyone who has been in play has a gift can the next player start.
   
5. a gift may only be stolen 3 times. We'd use little dot stickers to keep track of that.
   
   

I'llgo through this on the night: The main thing is, everyone brings a gift - of equal value wouldbe nice.
