Rory and I are organising a Pound and Bottle game of skill during the food break.\u00a0For this to be a success can I implore you to remember to bring as many pound coins as you might want to use to get the chance to win a fine bottle of fizz or (yes, two chances) a good bottle of single malt whisky. I will organise a float of \u00a31 coins which can be exchanged for paper money, but if you could bring pound coins that would be great.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jubilee-centre.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/615px-pile-of-pound-coins.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div id=\"m_3452596849129941963AppleMailSignature\">It&#8217;s a pound a shot, as many shots as you like. Nearest coin to the bottle wins. A good shot can knock the nearest coin away so that you are nearest. Underhand rolling or sliding are the only permissible ways to play.<\/div>\n<div id=\"m_3452596849129941963AppleMailSignature\">There will be a line on the floor so no-one can creep forward. As, like me,<\/div>\n<div id=\"m_3452596849129941963AppleMailSignature\">some of you are older I will provide a mat on which you can kneel. Only one person at a time can play, so that we can identify the leading coin.<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div id=\"m_3452596849129941963AppleMailSignature\"><b>PLEASE REMEMBER TO BRING CASH!<\/b><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>The social subgroup adds:<\/strong> Remember &#8211; tickets include food at half time, and it&#8217;s BYOB, so get your &#8216;carry-oot&#8217; organised!\u00a0 It would also help if you could bring your own glasses, and take home any recycling (otherwise we have to take it home!).<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0The<a href=\"https:\/\/queensferryrowing.org\/nifty-knots\/\"> QRC Nifty Knotters<\/a> will have a wee stand, so please have a look at their fabulous, handcrafted monkey fist products, which all are for sale.<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>We will have a small number of tickets for sale at the door on the night (in addition to those of you who have already contacted the team).
