What's this blog all about?

"Board games? You play board games?" I hear you say... yes, but not unlike any board games you've probably ever heard of. Monopoly? Cluedo? Guess Who? Battleships? No, not by a long shot. One day someone introduced me to a great little game called "Carcassonne" - named after a French medieval town of rambling streets, walls and sections - where the aim is to score the most points using little random squares of road, walls and cities.
I was hooked and so began my, then our - the Bradshaw Tribe, adventure into Euro- and Ameritrash- gaming...

Meeting of minds

Finally managed to meet Dave Estall today, another boardgamegeek-er who is literally based around the corner from work. He'd said about popping in during lunch as he often works at home; and today I happened to be walking past as he was parking up. Great to meet another gamer offline - he kindly invited me around - saying the next time he'd be working from home was at lunchtime this Friday, so I'll make the effort to pop over. Hopefully we'll be able to get some quick games in during these up and coming cold and wet Winter months!
