Welcome to MSE, it'll soon become an addiction!!:cool:

Frustration is sooooo frustrating....;)

Seeing as this is turning into a board games thread, I thought a few of you may be interested in this site I found the other day, while looking for good board games to play.

http://www.boardgamegeek.com/

Its has loads of info about old and new board games.

Ah Mastermind - I used to spend hours playing it as a child - wonder if I could persuade my babes!

Argos are selling the Spears version "Pop 'n' Hop" for £3.99. Just bought a couple for pressies!

My Dad and I always used to play "Escape from Colditz" when I was little. I remember always having to be the black police pieces though as it used to scare me being the one trying to escape! He still has it in a tatty looking box! Doubt he'd be willing to sell it though!



Plenty on eBay though if you are after one!

Mastermind was another one we used to play as well. Still love all those old classics!

I know I have mentioned this site before, but Bargain Crazy has some cheap board games. I got the "don't wake Dad" game, which retails for 14.99 in Argos for £8.99. They also do some of the classics for 5.99 and they have the dream phone is for £10, which I think was double this price in Tesco for it yesterday.

Best place to look for the older games is charity shops and car boot sales.
I bought Notability at a car boot, actually swapped an answer machine for it with the next door stall.

Friends that we have a games night with every so often, Bargains_Galore, were so impressed with the game they set off on a mission to find one and in the end found two in different charity shops in great condition.

I will now find myself looking everywhere for Colditz

ASDA have various games that are just like the MB orginals tohugh they have different names.

I seen variations of Twister, Guess Who and Buckaroo possibly others but having 4 kids it doesn't pay to dawdle in the toy isle.

I think they were retailing for approx £3.50
