The next meeting is on Tuesday 19^th February playing shorter games from 7.30pm as people arrive, until 8pm when we will start something a little longer.

Since we didn’t play it last time, the “Feature Game” will be For Sale, which is a quick, fun game about buying and selling real estate, where players first bid for several buildings then, after all buildings have been bought, sell the buildings for the greatest profit possible.  We chose this game as we would like to play something a little more substantial that would depend heavily on who comes along (possible games include, Village, Niagara, Mystery of the Abbey, Vasco da Gama, Keyflower and Snowdonia).

And talking about selling things…

A door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman manages to bully his way into a woman’s home in a rural area.

“This machine is the best ever,” he exclaims, whilst pouring a bag of dirt over the lounge floor.

The woman says she’s really worried it may not all come off, so the salesman responds, “If this machine doesn’t remove all the dust completely, I’ll lick it off myself.”

“Do you want ketchup on it?” she says, “We’re not connected for electricity yet…”
