Fair enough, my mistake, obvious in hindsight.   Carry on.  [If this all goes pear shaped...oh god, the image came back!!]

We play board games in our house over the holidays.

My favourite is one called Probe - I think it is from the 70s and I don't think you can buy it other than at garage sales (for $1 or $2) or expensively on eBay. It is a guessing word game for 4 people but I bought a few extra games over the years and you can just grab a set of pieces for extra players. I don't think anyone else in my family likes it that much but put up with a few rounds over the holidays to keep me happy (cooking).

My daughter had played a part in the stage play "Clue" at school this past spring so I thought it would be fun to buy the game. On my birthday this year, I sat down with my three kids and played a game - I went first (Birthday Rules) and guessed Colonel Mustard with a wrench in the library on my first go and won!

Everyone was annoyed as it takes a while to set up lol

That is a pretty stupid game.
