It's also cool to do this with savings pots. When people have a hard time saving, they'll say things like "what's the point in saving £10 a month towards X, that's nothing". I usually point out the annual figure, since a lot of people don't think that way.
That said, personally I do this too much, and it can make it hard to spend and too enticing to save. But that's a different topic..
Tell us what you end up cooking!
I'm frying a burger patty, and then some diced potato which I'll heavily spice with paprika, chillies, cumin, etc, and fry once the patty is done. Bit random, but I'm tired and want some flavour.
Ah that's a great story, I had the same experience early on, got heavily into video games for a long time before wanting something more tactile and social. I enjoy Slay and Monster Train, maybe I should check out Dominion. I'm not very good at them..
If I start dating again, board games will be an essential requirement :D
I do really enjoy Wingspan now, the artwork and production quality is a huge appeal, I also use the Wingsong app when my son's around, as he enjoys hearing the birds.
I love Cascadia, it's not deep and I feel I've maxed out my strategy, but it's such a pleasure to play, especially with non gamers.
I was looking at Parks last week, do you have either expansion? Was hoping for a big box, but there aren't any plans.
I've not come across that, but I'd probably just stop playing, it'd drive me nuts. My crowd tends to turn up with laminated rule sheets..
On taking back turns, I'm lenient once or twice if done quickly, or if it's a genuine mistake, but otherwise, no chance.
Love the sound of that, I've always wanted to try Mah Jong, and those tables look very cool.
Yeah it's a shame so many people associate board games with boring roll and moves, or family arguments.
Tell me about it, they're so hard to resist, especially when you've got a gaming partner. I love the nature themes like Meadow, Wingspan, etc.
I took Cascadia over to a mate's, who expected something like monopoly, and he was blown away.
Love it! I hope I'm setting my kids up to enjoy gaming. Been playing chess with one since he was 6, have enjoyed watching him discover strategies and understand how to defend.
I've still not played Catan, but I've converted a few friends with Cascadia. Catan is the most controversial game I've come across, plenty of lovers and haters in equal measure
Am I missing something, or would basically any old smartphone work in place of this? I have a Pixel which sits in a cradle and takes care of anything I'd use this for. I guess a physical button or dial might be nice, but I have a volume dial on the car dash.
Seems plainly obvious that it'll require a sub. It's a Spotify box.
