What games do people play?

Uno is a good game. Like you Steve, used to play a lot of tabletop wargames, mostly WW2. Good fun, but what a pain to setup and put away again in the same afternoon - and hard work on the back muscles leaning over that damn table! I guess that pc-based wargaming has largely pushed it into a minority activity now.

I spent some hours painting figures for wargaming in my time, I'll tell you!

I like hurling, but I don't play with any club. Not the best at team sports :p

Used to play a lot of tennis and rugby (no good at rugby, but it was a lot of fun

)

I just used the search-button (for the term "chessmatch") and rechecked the six chess matches some of us had two and a half year ago live on this board. It was a nice idea, and a lot of fun, I think, and for some weeks served this board well.

Boy, time is fleeting...

Tried out golf the other day, my swings are completly useless i think i made a pretty large hole in the ground trying to hit the ball and when i did hit the ball it went sideways

I use to play rugby for the over 30's team where we would meet up on saturdays tuck in our stomachs push out our chests and try to look mean on the field, by end of the 80mins most of us were stuffed and looking it. Soon as that whistle went we would head of to the club rooms to get drunk. :rotfl: Probably the only reason we played.

I play soccer and golf but had some baseball backgrounds in there a little while back.
