Social Games?

When I was writing stuff for the about page of this site, there was one group of games I really wanted to mention, but struggled mightily with: games that depend more on social interaction than any deck of cards, arena, markers or boards. I decided on “social games”, and almost immediately regretted it.

Sing us in, Pointer Sisters

… because the time and date is 12:34:56, 7/8/9.

We had a great evening yesterday, thank you all for coming. We’re slowly working out what games work well and what games don’t, but it’s already shaping up to be an excellent night. Photos soon, and next one on September the 3rd!

Today’s The Day

Right, we’re just about there. Tonight is probably going to be a miniature feast of Carcassonne and Rubik’s cubes, but everything else is welcome of course.

If you want updates about future ones, you can keep an eye on this blog, or you could join the Facebook group, or you could follow us on Twitter.

Or, *wink*, you could come over and meet us at Lee Rosy’s tonight after 6.

5 days!

Do you ever have one of those days where you dress up as a panda bear, for a pandas and Elvises party at the house of some relative strangers, only to turn up 24 hours early? I just did, and it was hilarious.

Only five days now until we begin proper. We’ve updated the contact page so you can see what we look like. By all means introduce yourself on the night.
