Toy Planet Collectors of Wantage buy and sell toys, comics, and collectables from 1950 to the present.  They are currently holding a monthly games night at The Beacon in Wantage.  To date, the games have mostly been traditional fare.  However, last time one of the gamers from the Didcot Games Club went with some local friends and some good, quick-to-learn-and-play games and began the battle for hearts and minds.  There is a general acceptance of people bringing their own games, and one of the organisers joined in with others and expressed an interest in our sort of games.  This time some of the GOATS are planning to go along and continue the “Good Fight” with a range of light-and-fun games.

The next Games Night will be Friday 23rd September from 7.30pm until 11pm (note that the Beacon Website has the times wrong).  There is plenty of parking and the postcode is OX12 9BX; entry is free and the bar will be open.  The coffee shop will also be open serving tea, coffee, soft-drinks, cake and snacks, though they ask that only food purchased on the premises should be consumed there.
