12: Backgammon

One thing about being in social lockdown is the rediscovery of old fashioned pastimes to keep us occupied. I actually played backgammon with my husband day before yesterday - I HATE backgammon. We didn't have a board so he printed one up, and we used different coloured beans for men. Reminded me of my grandmother handing me a bowl of cold boiled potatoes and an Eaton's catalogue - I made up scenarios by cutting out the pictures from the catalogue and pasting them onto paper with boiled potato. It worked.
