My main worry is that everyone will now be too busy spending their BHGS Cash to actually play even 5 games...

I've heard about this but not received an email?

If you're giving money back a £5 beer voucher would be good?

Yes Tim traders at Britcon must include the bar, and I may spend £10 there to get my £5 of free beer

Following the recent Andy / Pete "love in" in the rules section, I believe this is attempting to use the letter of the rules as opposed to the spirit of the rules (do you see what I did there?)

However, I for one am going to say a free fiver at the bar following a spend of £10 is perfectly acceptable.

You are welcome to try to spend your BHGS Cash at the bar, but please be warned that a punch in the face often offends...

You may have a few barmen in A&E, I wouldn't like to offend anyone.

We've currently got an uneven number of players in FoGAM Ancients - so if anyone is tempted to make a late booking that's the one to go for (please...)

One more player will make a nice round 30 in each FoGAM period.... and with your £5 in BHGS Cash, the de-facto entry price is now £45 - lower than it's been for several years.

Whats not to like..?

Definitely 6 plus 2 French Ord and I'm guessing Swiss may also feature in the 2 Med German Lists?
