How does your Christmas Day pan out? Is your house full of friends & family? Do you go over to the parents(-in-law)? How do you pass the time?
There’ll be ones who busy themselves in the kitchen, preparing food and washing up. Some scarper to the pub to stay out of the way for a few hours.
Then there are other people who use the opportunity of having a captive audience to bring out the board games. They can be the source of hilarity, act as ice-breakers where there are newcomers to the abode or bring out a competitive streak where least expected.
I love a session of Scrabble or Trivial Pursuit, and the three board games above are all in a similar vein. Words, trivia and quick thinking; what’s not to love?
