(Board/Card/Dice) Games this Sunday!

[azekeil]

There will be games happening at mine this coming Sunday at about 2pm, after an optional pub lunch in The Norwood Arms (directions below) at 12 noon. Anyone who wants to come please comment below; if you can bring games then do so! It's for fun; there will be children there, smoking outside.

To get to the Norwood Arms: M5 J11a - take the A417 towards Cirencester. After ~1 mile turn off (left) on the A46 towards Cheltenham. The pub is on the right just before the second (apparently it could be as many as four; it appears to be two on the map) roundabout (~4 miles). The roundabout with the pub on joins the A46 (Shurdington Road) to Leckhampton Road.

Hope to see a few of you there!

UPDATE: Map link here - the pub is where the arrow is.

*snort* Just one? ;) *shakes tin of stupid-amounts-of-dice*

*crestfallen* I used to have loads but I left them lying around and they got nicked. Now I just have what I need and no more. Woe, my poor dice collection! :/

I kinda collect 'em. Next time I'm in London I'll probably pop into Orc's Nest and could pick you up a set or two if you want? They're only about four squid per set, but I won't be making it down until late July/August. Alternatively, if you look on the net and fancy spending 60 squid, there's a set of amethyst dice I honestly have and still do spend hours drooling over, and they have purrrty onyx ones too... <./roleplayer> :)

Orc's Nest? I'll google for that one.

Sounds very cool (in a roleplayery kind of way!)

Just round the corner from Cambridge Circus (where they used to show Les Mis, on Charing Cross Road betwen leicester square and tottenham court road); stand with back to theatre, cross junction, start down main road take first right, on your right.

Used to do a few board games (I got RoboRally there) but not many; better for board games is Playing Games near the British Museum. Orc's Nest is primarily wargaming type figures followed by RPGs.

Have you checked the "Random dice bowl of doom" at John's place? I know about fifteen of mine are there. I have about 45 standard d10's (included the "house dice" at John's) a shed load of d6's and smattering of "D&D" sets and a special collection which includes my "D&D" Haematite set... Mmmm... Dice...

Are you in need of a donation/acquisition? I could probably grab you some next time I am RP shopping if you like?
