I got up at six to deice the car and go collect a parcel that it turns out doesn’t exist. I will now go to back to bed.

Later I’m going to London (well, Bromley) so I can play card games tomorrow morning. And also so I’m not home for the Christmas party my gf’s hosting for her work colleagues, because fuck that.

Any recommendations for food round there?

What ye uptae?

#2

Probably gonna stick some washing on in a minute. Exciting!

#3

I take it you’re going to that new(ish) board game cafe?

#4

Managed to spend >£100 in booze yesterday for a soirée and only have one bottle. Guess that means I have to start drinking heavily at home.

Driving lesson 8-10, then heading to GW to pick up a preorder and probably some uneedeed rules book that I’ll never use (but coo over the pictures). After that, just lie in bed willing this cold to be shaken off

#5

Yep. I’m told they bring coffee and cake to you while you play, which will be a nice change from being in a poorly lit basement that smells like armpit.

#6

I was up at 7 to give the cat his meds. But as I’m knackered I’m going back to bed.

Later I’m meeting friends for lunch and drinks before heading to Palace v Bournemouth. It looks freezing out so I’d better wrap up warm.

#7

Yeah i went there a few weeks back. You heard about the new board game cafe in Croydon? That looks amazing

#8

If you are looking for a pub in Bromley go the the Star and Garter. Amazing place.

For food, the Olive Tree cafe.

#9

No, bit out of the way for me. I only schlep to these places for tournaments anyway.

Morning @epimer @ynot @Songs_about_ducking @Bamnan and everyone else

Currently sat in bed while the girls watch songs on YouTube. Got my dad and his New Friend™ to stay. Going out a walk and lunch in the morning, then out for Chinese tonight.

Actually managed to sleep through the night without waking up coughing :+1:

#11

Fair enough. But this is the place anyway.

#12

put the washing on now eating coconut oil mmmmm

#13

seems ludicrously cold outside this morning, you’re better off staying in bed I think

#14

Morning all. Folks are visiting for the weekend, so got to entertain them. Reckon we’ll end up walking on the South Bank because of the magnetic hold it has over all parents. Apparently there’s a Christmas market there, so it’ll be even more hellishly crowded than usual.

#15

The idea of entertaining my dad and his New Friend indoors all day fills me with utter dread. Just gonna put on a load of extra layers and brave it!

#16

aaah christmas :wink:

#17

Morning all!

Current status: :sneezing_face: :worried:

#18

Up with the kids. Missus is having a lie in. Snow in the garden. Might have to get coats and gloves on for a walk

#19

Can I advise that you get shitfaced after the driving, not during or before?

#20

bless you!
