Last night, my flatmates and I played "Ring of Fire," a.k.a. King's Cup. The rules are pretty much the same, except a few which I think we should adopt:
7: Sevens. You go around the circle counting off, but when you reach a number that has a seven in it or is a multiple of seven, you must say a different word in its place.
8: Mate or Thumb Master. I think "mate" is a better term to use than "date." The other option is Thumb Master, where the person who drew the card puts their thumb surreptitiously on the edge of the table at some point during the game, and the last person to copy them drinks.
Q: God Save the Queen. The person who drew the card takes a penny, which has a picture of the queen on it, and drops it in someone's drink. The other person must have their hands on their glass in order for the penny person to drop the pence in the drink. The person who receives the penny must then finish off the drink, thus "saving the queen."
Other news in the flat: Our flat came to the conclusion last night that, should the zombie apocalypse come, we will all take refuge in Norwich Castle and make our last stand in the keep.
