Our next meeting will be Tuesday 30th May 2023. As usual, we will start playing shorter games from 7.30pm as people arrive, until 8pm when we will start something a little longer. For those who want to eat, the table is booked from 6.45pm, for the last time under the current chef/management.
This week, the “Feature Game” will be the Wild Ride expansion (rules; video review) to our go-to motor racing game, Downforce (rules; review; how to play video). Like Draftosaurus last time, the group first played Downforce online (in this case for our online New Year Party 2020/2021), but since then we have played it several times in person. The Wild Ride expansion adds two new tracks, one with jumps, the other with animal obstacles.

Speaking of car racing…
Jeff and Joe were chatting about one of their favourite subjects, racing cars and their drivers.
Joe commented, “I think the best driver of all time is James Hunt, he just made the 1970s for me—he was just amazing.”
Jeff thought for a moment and then asked, “Who won the 1975 F1 World Championship?”
“Lauda,” replied Joe.
Jeff took a deep breath, then shouted back, “WHO WON THE 1975 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP?!“
