Our next meeting will be Tuesday 22^nd August 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.  The pub is doing food, and the table is booked from 6.30pm for those that would like to eat first.

This week, the “Feature Game” will be Ticket to Ride: Northern Lights (rules, review).  This is the latest version of one of our favourite games, Ticket to Ride, and is similar to the Nordic Countries stand-alone game that we often play at Christmas, except that more people can play, there are a few rules tweaks, and the artwork is less festive (though still very, very beautiful).

Speaking of the Northern Lights…

Jeff’s mate Joe was telling him about the recent trip he’d made to Norway with his girlfriend, Alice. He explained how seeing the Northern Lights was one of the things he’d always wanted to do. He’d found a romantic log cabin and they stayed there together for a few nights. Joe explained that he’d loved his time there and seeing the Northern lights, but his girlfriend Alice, had admitted that she hadn’t found the trip at all interesting.

Jeff replied, “I guess it must have been really hard watching the Aurora boring Alice…”
