As well as falling in with musicians and actors in Loughborough, I’ve also discovered a board gaming group (which happens to have a significant intersection with the set of members of the church worship group). Last night I went along and managed a resounding last place in Power Grid, before coming bottom in Braggart. Technically, I didn’t lose Family Business although, since it ended with everyone dead, that isn’t the strongest of boasts.

However, although winning is nice from time to time, it is a real pleasure just to take part and I will be back.
