First street fair of the season on my block, hearing the clang clang of the metal pipes for the tents -

My house had our first day of chilling in the backyard, barbecuing and drinking beers yesterday.

Hot dogs + Coors Light + sun = yay!

First chance for a trip out into the nearby Worcestershire countryside.

Why do people drink light beer?

As it works at our house, if you don't do your weekly chores by Sunday night, you owe the house a 30 rack of beer, your choice (miss out two weeks in a row and you owe a beer ball, three weeks is a keg of cheap beer, ect.). I wasn't the one who messed up, so I had no say in the matter.

And trust me, I have no desire to drink ANY light beer. I'm happiest with heavy winter-style lagers, even during the spring and summer.

Change the rules.

Make it a $ minimum rather than a beer quota.

Miss your chores, you owe at least $30 of beer.
Twice, $60, etc etc.

Any extra is written down and credited to you as a freebee later. Receipts Required (or at least proof that you spent more than the minimum. Receipts needed for actual $$ credit above the minimum...)

That way you can get a case of good shizznit (At LEAST Yueng) and not have to deal with guys finding the cheapest crap on sale at the local supermarket liquor store! ;)
