New game...

Spent the evening playing a new board game which Charlie and Dominique have made. It's a family version of Cluedo, based on our house as a board (on two levels, downstairs and upstairs). The family become the suspects (including Goldie the dog) and the murder implements include grandma's knitting needles, the potato peeler, one of Charlie's hats and so on. They have added some chance cards (as in Monopoly) including discovering a steel boot that enables you to boot another player out of any room at any time (but only once!).

The whole thing has been wonderfully produced: photos of all the suspects and implements mounted on cards etc. And people wonder how they fill their time with no TV...
