Mine was when Matron offered me something to lick. Could have done with a bit of 'Thousand Island Dressing' on it though.

New For Xmas 2018 MaccaGames proudly presents:
BREXIT! The Boardgame.
Fun for all the family! You can choose to play as:
Theresa May's Shoes: As the 'mutton dressed as mutton' leader of the Evil Tory party your task is to take Britain out of the EU whilst at the same time ensuring that nothing actually changes..
Boris Johnson's Hair: Your goal is to use Brexit to seize control of the Evil Tory party.
Jeremey Corbyn's Beard: As the latest in a long line of messiahs you must attempt to build the New Jerusalem by openly opposing Brexit whilst secretly being all in favour of it.
Fat Ugly Irish Woman: Your task is to line your own pockets whilst simultaneously making the English despise the Irish even more than they do already.
Donald Trump's Hair: You must interfere in the Brexit process as much as possible even though you don't actually have a scooby as to what it's all about.
Mr Brexit: Your task is to travel the board protecting the red lines, making unreasonable and unrealistic demands and shouting 'Out Means Out!' each time you roll the dice.
Mr Remainer: You must chase Mr Brexit around the board, shouting loudly for a second referendum and calling him a stupid racist. When you catch him you will find he is quite a big lad with tattoos and a bull terrier. At this point the hunter becomes the hunted!
Claude Von Junker's Drink Problem: Your task is to make life as difficult as possible for all the other players.
BREXIT! The Boardgame comes in a handsome, full colour printed 'recycled' cardboard box containing the following items:
1 deck of laminated 'Chancer' cards.
1 deck of laminated 'Opportunism Knocks' cards
1 set of wildly fluctuating 'Brexit Currency'
1 Five foot long 'Donald Trump Style' red tie
Set of rub on tattoos for 'Mr Brexit' - choose between 'Mum' / 'Love-Hate' / Cross of St George
Set of comedy voices for 'Mr Remainer' - choose between Lisp / Stutter / High-pitched Homosexual
1 full colour mounted playing board featuring such key Brexit locations as London, Brussels, Strasbourg and of course Stoke-On-Trent, the 'Brexit Capital Of Britain'.
1 pair of loaded dice.

It's just a game to you isn't it
Does the game include airline tickets for those who'd rather be somewhere else till it's over?

I heard that this game will be produced in China, and after Brexit it will continue to be made in China.

Yes. It's the same company that will be printing the new English passports once we secede from the union shortly after Brexit.Originally Posted by Pigmy Pony

Genus Martin...or is it Genius (Version) as the other much less popular board game Trivial Pursuit is normally called. Best thing I have read for ages.
Buy Bose...And get your parking validated!.

After happily using the same purpose-made cat bed for the past eighteen months, Alice has suddenly decided she would rather kip somewhere (anywhere) else. After trying a few alternatives (behind sofa, on a mat in hall next to radiator, in a corner behind Mrs. P's chair), she's settled on back of sofa behind my head, and will stay there until breakfast.
Does anyone have an explanation for this? Is she just sick of her own smell? Makes no sense to me.
