Next Meeting, 19th September 2023

Our next meeting will be Tuesday 19th September 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 Alea Iacta Est (rules, review and how to play video).  This is a fairly simple dice chucking game, with a lot of similarity to one of our old favourites, Las Vegas, but with a bit more planning and a roman theme.

Speaking of Romans…

Jeff was working at a cinema when a Roman centurion walked in. After the showing, the Roman came back to the desk and asked for a refund.

“No one told me that the movie was going to be a pornographic one,” the centurion explained to Jeff.

Jeff politely replied, “Sir, look at the sign, it clearly says right here what kind of films we show.”

Looking back at the sign, the centurion responded, “You lie! There are most certainly not thirty movies!”
