Nige reports that all his Christmases came at once when Steve was insistent that they finish with this game - one of Nige's 'banker' games. Added to which he had the audacity to suggest he wasn't sure of one or two of the rules just to put the others off the scent. It seems the others were stuffed from the very first turn as Nige cruised to an easy victory.

Oh, and he wanted me to point out the relevance of Steve's T-Shirt, his win record for earlier in the week and the fact that, with our group, he was now playing in the Premier League.
