What a day. Hi Kasia. Hope the mailing is fine. Seems tripplets the thing tonight!
Anyone for a game of "Stadt, Land, Fluss" You need a sheet of paper where you note down:
Town
Country
River
Name
Animal
Job
Brand of Car
Then one starts off going through the Alphabet under his/her breath, and one of the others says stopp. He then tells you what letter it was. (e.g. "F") and off you go writing down names and words with that letter, like:
Town: Frankfurt
Country:France
River: ?
Name: Friedrich
Animal: Frog
Job: Frogman
Brand of Car: Ford
And the first who has a name for all of the subjekts goes and says "finished":THen you compare the answers: 0 points for no entry. 5 points if others have the same entry 10 points if you are the only none to have a certain entry and 20 points if you are the only one to have an entry at all.
I´ll start:
A .................................*E going through his alphabet*

*Passes Kes a tube of glue and wonders if Linus has stopped whatever it is that he isn't doing* 
Mari-Rae what do you do when you run out of wool?
*Regards the rapidly expanding snake of knitting that is appearing around Mari-Rae's feet*
Is it a draught excluder of some sort for a very large barn?

Kes Posted Nov 28, 2000
*Stares at the glue, being quite dim sometimes*
Pipe insulation? ... the knitting, I mean ...

Go look at my homepage for the answer about the wool!
It is NOT a cover for a pipe.
