The official rules :
There are, no rules. Join the crawl when you like, drink as much or as little as you like and leave when you like.

* Be a kiwi and respect the public.

* Do not under any circumstances use the District line. This is all about the Circle line.

* No sitting or holding onto rails while on the tube.
* A drink at each stop. Doesn't have to be a pint - but your first one should be a pint.

* Buffalo rules apply. Left hand, no pinkie - you know the rest.
* If a pub is rammed, use some of that famous Kiwi ingenuity and find another one.
* A 'substantial' can also be called along the way. This is a drink which is larger than a routine skol. It is up to the drinker but should be bigger than your usual minimum. Make sure you've got a witness.
* A boat race can also be organised between provinces. Normal boat race rules apply.

Spread the word and see you there !!!
