THE BOARD: ORTHODOX VERSION

If there is a "proper" way to do a MBPC then, strictly speaking, this is it. Participants consume a drink at each of the Monopoly board squares, in the same order:

At first glance, this would actually seem an impossible task. However, we have found documentary evidence that it has not only been achieved, but has been done so with no preparation or planning. Whilst we don't doubt the veracity of such tales, we are bound to presume a large dollop of luck was had on the day.

Note: With extended opening hours, the task theoretically becomes much easier. It should also be noted that a certain pub not a million miles from the starting point has been known to open its doors ten (vital?) minutes early.
