Crokinole

The kids bought their dad this game a few years ago, it was a favourite from his childhood.  It is similar to a hearty and rustic tiddly-winks.

I just mention it because I cleared off a table to play this later tonight.

Looks good, but Amazon charge  around £270 for a decent board.  May have to make one.

The kids paid about $100 here for a sturdy board, but it was one of those things cheaper to pick up in a game store than on Amazon (that free postage really isn't)
