Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, 12th December, at the Horse and Jockey pub in Stanford-in-the-Vale. As this is our last meeting before Christmas we will be meeting early at 7pm for pizzas and Christmas festivities.
This week, the “Feature Game” will be Giftmas at Dungeon Abbey followed by a range of Christmas and winter themed games like Snow Tails, Christmas Tree, The Great Downhill Ski Game, Snowboard, Antarctica, Carcassonne: Winter Edition and Ticket to Ride: Nordic Countries. Giftmas at Dungeon Abbey is a short game set in a world somewhere between Downton and The Adams Family, designed by a local gamer and member of the Didcot Games Club, Rob Harper.

And speaking of Christmas…
Jeff wasn’t in a festive mood. He was in a lot of pain, so he went to see his doctor to get the problem looked at.
“What seems to be the problem?” Jeff’s GP asked.
Jeff looked a bit shifty and uncomfortable, and not just due to his ailment. “I’ve, er… got um…” he mumbled.
“Speak up, I can’t help you if I don’t know what’s the matter,” interrupted the doctor.
Jeff tried again, “I’ve, um…” but again his voice faded away to silence.
The doctor took pity on him and gently coaxed him on, “Is it something to do with an intimate area? You know there’s nothing to be ashamed of, we’re all the same really. Now what’s bothering you? You can tell me.”
Jeff took a deep breath “Doctor…” then he blurted out, “I seem to have a mince pie stuck up my bottom!”
“Oh, you’re in luck,” answered the Doctor, “I’ve got some cream for that!”
