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...

Second game of Ticket to Ride Marklin - Anita back on form!

This evening we had our second game of Ticket to Ride: Marklin. And this time Anita took no prisoners - we were both now cautious with our Long Route cards taking only one each (those long routes are long!!) and she collected up several extra points using the passengers. Another crushing defeat as Anita won by 50 points!
