OK guys, the members' poll re venue change is over, and after many hours poring over the entries, spoiled ballots, hanging chads etc, we have finally got a result. It was very close, but somehow I don't think this time we will be seeing any challenges in the Supreme Court ...
In favour of a move to St Christopher's Inn: 96.3%
In favour of staying at the Bell & Compass: 3.7%
Yeah, I was lying when I said it was close
So, Charing Cross Gaming Club will now be based permanently in London Bridge. I think we'll probably rename the club CGC, but there will be a prize for anyone who can come up with a new name that reflects both old and new venues (a la Wimbledon becoming MK Dons). The prize will be either a big sloppy kiss from Luke (slut that he is) or a slightly used kipper. Depends how attached to the kipper I feel I am when it really comes down to it.
Anyway, we of the Committee (or the Cabal, as we were recently referred to, hence my latest name change) will be very pleased to see you all down at St Christopher's in the future. There's lots going on with new tables, terrain and work on the venue as well. As always, we want to know what you want, so keep your suggestions rolling in on the feedback and modelling sections. And as the man says, if you want to show your appreciation, don't throw flowers, just money.
