I Got Game!
11:18pm: Yes indeed! This evening I went over to Uncle Sam, Aunt Jo and Cousin Mack's with my Simpsons DVDs and ready to play Scrabble!
As it happened we didn't end up playing Scrabble because Mack had a friend over for the night, so we had to play a game that was more of interest to them, which turned out to be a game that I can no longer remember the name of...Oh dear. It's like an Aussie version of Monopoly where you're a sheep farmer and them aim of the game is to get five irrigated paddocks full of sheep. Unfortunately, it didn't go all that well for me, I ended up with no sheep at all! Like Monopoly it took a lot of time to play. Mack and his friend played as a team and we almost declared the game done because it looked like they were going to win, but Mack's friend wanted the satisfaction of actually winning, so we continued...for a lot longer, because they kept missing out on the right spot (you could only buy or sell sheep when you landed on a square called "Stock Sale") and Aunt Jo almost stole the win! But alas she kept getting taxed...just like real life, LOL.
Meanwhile, Uncle Sam kept missing turns because it kept landing on "Go to town" - which I guess is the "Jail" equivalent. As for me...like I said not very good luck I kept going into drought or not able to buy any sheep and losing my sheep etc. etc.
Anyway, I'll have to go back some other time for the Scrabble!
On my way home I popped into this amazingly decorated house near Jo, Sam and Mack's place. I went to the same house last year with my parental's actually, but even with some of the same decorations it was still a sight to be seen. I took video which I haven't uploaded yet, but when I do I'll let you all have a look-see.
And I'm feeling quite sleepy so I'll wrap this up here...may I get around to Memes, some day!
Goodnight all!
