While The Farmer is away at trains, the rest of us decided to get together. The Farmer is not a fan of card games nor one pot meals which he very disparagingly calls slop, so the theme of the evening was decided.
Slop aka spaghetti bolognese
followed by Texas Hold’em Poker.
Living the high life.

It was a win win and a lot of fun although personally I wont be signing up for any big games in the near future. I havent got the countenance for it
Very wise.
Spag Bol is a very respectable meal. I can just about manage Snap.
Spag bol is one of my favourites. As for cards, the secret is to play with folk who like having fun.
