Another evening playing a board game, although at Ally’s this time! Risk was the flavour of the day and, to be honest, one of my favourite board games. Brimming with smugness after yesterday’s victory, and a subsequent 5-1 frame victory over David H at snooker this afternoon, I proceeded to occupy Australasia, only to be ousted by David H who had placed a vast army in Siam. The eventual outcome was slightly surprising to me, with Ally and Miriam becoming the architects of world domination. I say surprising, as usually, being girls, they aren’t so aggressive and have an unfortunate leaning towards mercy, allowing the boys to regain a foothold. So all credit to them for sticking to their guns. Ah well, my early exit gave me a chance to watch As Good As It Gets on the telly.
