King of Games V: Queen of Games

A very busy day competing (and helping out a bit) with the annual King of Games competition. Was a very well run day, even though a few people dropped out at the last minute which is always challenging, especially as compiling the schedule is a difficult task even for Charlie's brain.


A strong performance from me at Fictionary (Absolute Balderdash, though I came second to a v compelling performance from Liam), Scrabble, Mafia, though let it slip a bit with Jenga and Pictionary.

Very pleased and unsurprised to award Liam with the trophy this year, and was also pleased to find myself declared the Madre of Parlour Games, how appropriate! Louise, Jonathan, Mum, Dad, Matty, Greg, James C and Kirsten came back to ours for pizza, beers and more games, with Ingenious, Mafia and Go all being played throughout the evening ... turns out a full day of games is not enough for some!

Bed at midnight, knowing we were going to lose an hour, and knowing that tomorrow would also be a full and busy day!

Queen of Games ...









... the new title for the games competition, after Erika Toth won the prestigious trophy yesterday. It was even smoother than ever, with around 20 of us complying with the detailed schedule and points system. Great to see everybody after coming back from holiday.
Lots on, especially with Dartmoor next weekend.
Spent today relaxing, though started off by running 5km with Alex. Could not be persuaded to bump it up to 6km, gently gently. Then wandered round Brixton, later rearranging the lounge for Spring, so we get more light through the window.
Lovely to see Kirsten, Norris and Makeila, who all dropped in to drop things off, exchange keys etc.
Bed soon, will see what occurred last week in the world of work soon.
