Asterix for me.

Just beating France is a major achievement!
I vividly remember Scotland's last Championship in 99 - it would be really good to see them win again.

I like watching Scotland win, I like watching France lose - this is a good day!

This is my absolute favourite Discworld novel just for that battle between Sam Vimes and the Dark. It's brilliant.

World Book Day is Thursday. I've been promoting this to my class for ages, I've been helping my own kids come up with costumes, but have I got one sorted for me? Have I f#?k!!! Anyone got a good suggestion that isn't Rowling, Dahl or Walliams?πŸ˜‚

They make (I think !) the Dresden Files Co-op card game, which is both an amazing puzzle to solve each time and a wonderful homage to the books. You could do a lot worse than pick that up!

Just introduced my sister and nephew to Love Letter, so that's always a good pick, but then you've got GWT there just begging to be played!!!

It was so frustrating to watch the final as a GB supporter

Just be aware that the solo and co-op modes are really tough! It's a very fun game though.

Endeavour Deep Sea might fit what you want

Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.

It's telling that he "apologised if anyone was offended" by his words rather than for actually saying them. That phrase is a sure sign of someone who isn't the least bit sorry.

I'm following all the Brits, and thus far they've all finished 4th...

Any teachers doing Macbeth, I can do this version for Β£5 a copy when purchasing 20+ copies. Free delivery.

We've been watching too - my 10 yr old didn't know this was a sport until 3 days ago and is apparently now an expert! 😁
I honestly think the Winter games is better for this than Summer

It's going to be an amazing few weeks! My telly won't know what hit it!

Ski cross and snowboard cross are the best 30 seconds of sport you'll ever watch! 😁

Bill Bryson is always fantastic. I highly recommend One Summer.
As for books, have you read Moneyball by Michael Lewis?

You mean you *don't* annually PubMeeple your collection so you know how your tastes change? πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‚

I hope you get a chance - if you're ever at an event I'm at I'll happily set you up! It's the best civ game I've ever played. It's brutal, but in a joyous Euro-y way.
My suggestion? Don't play your first game at 2 or 5 players. 😁

Nations. I only play it rarely but it is so so good.

I've been trying to get UD to respond on their Discord channel to the concerns people have regarding this. As a massive fan of their Legendary game, I'm really disappointed in this choice they've made.

I assume you know of Numberblocks? That one's really good

My wife always gets these two confused and can't tell one from the other. They're both "The one with whiskey barrels." I think playing both in one day would blow her mind!!! πŸ˜‚
