Does this need to be added to things to discuss or included with common meals part?

Have asked jan but she has nothing to help from her usa experience.

Most of the social events we have been to at high st school with ucol have included wine etc.

Once common meals start how would this be handled?

• Byo? If someone just wants one glass hard to see how they organise taking one glass and having the rest to take home for the next meal. some members won’t be able to afford to pay for a bottle and get only one glass each meal.
• Pay for drinks? Which could breach laws re having a licence
• Have a licence for common house?

We were in the fire brigade for years and the whole time there was some sort of discussion going on about this. never resolved. And tbh most brigades are breaking the laws by not having a licence. after something bad we usually stopped at the station for a debrief and, for those who wanted it, a drink. Which was either free, and you don’t generally offer a fireperson free drinks, or paid for. with no licence to sell.

The same applies to serving soft drinks but no laws involved but eg do children or non drinkers pay extra for meal to cover soft drinks?
