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

Brad

Hey All,


So now have votes as


2@ either

2@ Tues


So Tues 26th it is! I'm sure it'll go splendidly and we'll sort another evening soon 😀 If you can't do Tues 26th but would like to be involved for next time, do post here.


If we say The Lordship? 20:00?



Cheers

Brad

Hey all,


We have four confirmed for Tues 26th, 20:00, The Lordship. Should be fun!


Please do feel free to join us if you fancy it. We'll be the ones with a pile of games next to us.



Cheers

Brad

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

Who's in?


Had one PM confirming


(Though my preference would be for people just to post to The Forum about this thread, please - it's easier to manage and can virtually self-govern/organise without me needing to juggle lots of replies and report back.)

I think that I should be able to make it, but I'll confirm 100% on Wednesday (I need to see if a few things line up nicely). I know that Robbie has a work thing that night so he won't be coming. See you on Thursday!

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
