    What's wrong with a nice family board game like Monopoly?

    Fair point.

    Every played strip Monopoly? It probably wouldn't work very well now I think about it. I have played strip Jenga though.

    What's everybody's Monopoly tactics?

    Giles Brandreth was once world champion (I think) and told his championship winning tactics to the world on TVAM

    Just get the red and yellow sets - there's only three squares on that line of the board where you'll avoid having to pay whoever owns them.

    I've been playing a lot of the modern Cluedo recently - the cultural updates are pretty funny, actually - no professors (internet entrepreneur) or Reverends (retired premiership footballer)

    'sall good <ok>

    Anyone remember that decathlon game that was in the pubs around 84 ?
    The one the harder and more frequent you hit the buttons the faster you went.......I still got scars on my left thumb from that...
