Want to meet a group playing board games? Every Thursday 19:45 in The FC Wellbeing Cafe


Recommended Posts

Hello all,


I like playing board games. My friends and family, not so much! So I started this thread to see if a few people would be interested in meeting up and playing some games. I expected tumbleweed and even a little mocking... The response has been amazing! So much so, I think there are enough people interested to do this weekly. I'm not expecting people to come every week (myself included)! But there's enough interest to have people come on weeks they can or just want to and there still be a group to play with.


So every Thurs in

The FC Wellbeing Cafe

28 Grove Vale (though the cafe is down the side of the building, 10/20m down Melbourne Grove)

19:45 to be playing by 20:00.




Happy gaming!



Cheers

Brad

Splendid idea! xx



I'm hoping people might be interested in light-hearted meeting and socialising, but without the inevitable "what do you do?" and "house prices" conversations 😀 (no guarantees it won't happen anyway... Have you seen the house prices..?!)

Hey All,


What a splendid response. I honestly expected tumbleweed! Certainly enough for a little get together. Does everybody want to meet up?


Tues, Thurs, or Fri evenings are usually best for me...



Munchkins looks fantastic. Never even heard of it before. It's about bang on my level of Geek. Not too long or complicated, a smattering of Geek, and a good social/co-op/back-stabbing element. Happy to try that.

I have Pandemic, and a fair few others (well, more card than board games, Inc Hanabi, love letter, Kakerlaken poker, cards against humanity, though the latter might not be for a first meetup!). Love a good board game so would be up for meeting and playing but this week is no good.

Fabulous. Since coming out on here as a board game fan, I've been brave enough to speak to people about it in actual, real life - and found two who are interested as well. And somebody has DM'd me about it... So potentially three to six of us!


Tues 26th or Thurs 28 good for you guys? 20:00?

If you're free on both, please do say, as I can then offer both to the people not on The Forum and the DM'er.



Cheers

Hey All,


That was really good fun. Thanks for coming! And for being interested in making it a regular thing. Chuffed to bits to meet you guys. Some fabulous games made an appearance that I can't wait to try.


Let's make it a weekly thing.


We'll try Thurs evenings for a while, simply as there was more interest in that evening... Apologies Katanita! It has nothing at all to do with the fact that you came first and then second in the two games we played and are clearly a serious threat/contender/nemesis!! 😇


So Thurs 4th

19:45/20:00

The Cherry Tree, Grove Vale

(Trying to think of pubs, that we'll be able to get a couple of tables in on a Thurs night...)



Cheers

Brad

    • There are genuine risks for engineers working on cell towers, I believe, but the microwave effects attenuate very swiftly with distance meaning that those consumers, and residents, served by the towers are effectively risk free. The worst impact is aesthetic rather than medical, and the communications and computing etc. benefits offered by 5G tend to mitigate these for most people who have and use mobile telephony. Considering what else is out there in our built environment I personally don't think aesthetic objections trump the utility of better communications infrastructure. 
    • I think the concern is the mast being so close to a school as well?
    • There is a planning application to put a mobile phone mast at the top of Dog Kennel Hill.  Residents of Camberwell Grove and their friends in the Camberwell Society are fighting it - defacing their nice conservation area with ugly laminated posters!  They do not benefit from it as reception is fine on their side of the hill. https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=makeComment&keyVal=S9IKT2KBN1200 I do not think there are any health hazards from being near phone masts (or at least they are negligible relative to everyday risks we all face).  Anyway, here is what the NHS has to say about them: https://111.wales.nhs.uk/encyclopaedia/m/article/mobilephonesafety/#Risks I imagine this will spark some lively debate!
