The Summer of 2018 keeps on giving – just like your favourite chess club in West London.
Are you tired of heat, sunshine, chess and beer? Then Hammer has the perfect antidote… more of the same. Yes, Hammer is a devotee of the hedonistic Creed – if it doesn’t kill you it must be good. Hence, that superb event the Summer pub crawl with, wait for it…. chess. This year we go North to escape the sun.
This year’s festivities commence this coming Monday 6th August, at 7pm.
The night kicks off at The Albion at 7pm where we shall assemble. At 7.30pm chess sets/boards in hand we will commence our night’s Odyssey.
The times and running order are as follows:
- Assemble at The Albion at 7 to 7.30pm
- The Queen’s Head pub, 7.30 to 8.20pm
- The Brook Green Pub, 8.20pm to 9pm
- The Havelock from 9pm to 9.40pm
- The Beaconsfield 9.40pm to 10.30pm
- Return to The Albion for the wind down
You can join at anytime but to get the best from the evening you need to do the whole craic.
There may be a competition – there might not be – it’s that kind of evening.
All I can say is the quality of chess generally deteriorates through the evening, but the imagination soars!
One thing that also improves is the conversation – so true Hammers, I call you to assemble and have fun. See you tomorrow!!
I am John White, and I fully endorse this message and recognise it as a genuine product of the John White Drinking Club.
Just a correction, the Butterfield should be the Beaconsfield, celebrating that long gone time when publicans named their pubs after distinguished ex-prime ministers.
