Next Meeting, 6th February 2024

Our next meeting will be on Tuesday 6th February 2024.  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 CuBirds (rules, review and How to Play video).  This is a very light and quick set collecting game, which should allow plenty of opportunity to play other popular games like PARKS, Ticket to Ride: Northern Lights, Azul etc..  In addition, we are planning to Feature Ark Nova: Marine Worlds in the coming weeks, so we also plan to play the base game this week in preparation, starting at 7.30pm.

And speaking of birds…

A Blue Jay applied for a receptionists job. Jeff who was interviewing, was a bit non-plussed, so told the Jay that the candidate had to be able to type at least eighty words per minute. The Jay didn’t look bothered and proceeded to demonstrate that he could type one hundred words a minute.

Not wanting to hire a BIRD for the job, Jeff told the Jay that the candidate had to be able to take dictation, but again, the Jay surpassed all other candidates.

Finally, Jeff thought he’d be able to get rid of the Jay by explaining, “The candidate must be bilingual.”

The Jay replied, “Meow!!”
