Carl & Ann Moore run the Cribbage & Cards Group which meets on the 1st Thursday of the Month between 10am and 12.00, in the smaller Meeting Room at Callington Town Hall. The cost is £1.50 which covers room hire and refreshment
Generally speaking, we do play Cribbage, and as we have now learnt how to play with two, three and four players, everyone is included. If you would like to come along and join us, whether you have played before or are a complete novice, we're all on hand to show you and to help you pick up the rules of playing the game.
At present there are nine of us in our Group so each month depending on numbers we decide whether to play in 2, 3 or 4 set tables. Names are drawn at random for each set so you tend to play with different members each month. This was decided to keep the game fresh and give an edge each time so you rarely play the same people month after month. It works well which ever size table you are on. We even have a 3 player board Geoff brings to use to help scoring if that's the group total which is very useful.
So pop along if you fancy a hand or two. It helps with your maths and the conversation is always lively so supports the old grey cells from becoming dormant. The highest score of a round so far in the room is 40 only achieved once, and everyone is chasing that. All of which helps keep your brain active while enjoying good company. Come along and join in, or maybe teach us a new card game with which we are not familiar.
We were back to normal in the Committee Room on the 4th Sept and 2nd October where we attempted to beat the new high score of 22. Pop along and join in the fun. We meet on the first Thursday, 10 – 12. Costs £1.50 to cover room rental plus bottomless Drink & Bix. For more information contact Carl via the link above
