Popcorn Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 I used to love playing too, and would play for hours as a child. In our apartment while we were away recently, they have this fab coffee table (I wanted to take it home with me) It had a glass top with a checkered wooden board underneath it. Inside the table itself were allsorts of different games to play; chess, draughts, crib and backgammon. Unfortunatly I couldn't remember how to play. Thanks for the link Mel. I might get back into it now! Wished I'd have packed that table accidentally on purpose now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
