    The chocolate game.
    Whoever throws a 6 on the dice has to don hat, scarf and gloves then using a knife and fork, unwrap and cram as much chocolate from a huge slab of dairy milk in their gob as they can before the next person throws a 6 and starts tearing the items off their person and onto themselves.

    A family game best played not too close to lunch. :)
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    If it walks like a Duck, quacks like a Duck, it's a Duck.

    We like playing Destination Hogwarts but this year I've bought Destination Christmas to try out. We also like playing Scotland Yard.

    We like having a few drinks then pointing out each other's faults and suggesting improvements to how each of us lives our lives. Fun for all the family.

    Balderdash for years and this year I have bought speak out as its adults only. I have bought wind up toys to have a race with ( eBay) and we will have a race and a few prizes for that ( probably the edible variety).

    Not so much a game but last year we bought a bingo set which proved massively successful. Add in a slightly tipsy caller, a slightly risque list of calls and some pound shop prizes and you've got hours of fun that everyone can join in with.

    This year we've bought a balloon modelling kit :)

    Didn't get it at all. The forced laughter in my group of friends was telling. We played it once and haven't played it again.

    Whoa, thats weird, looks like i'm talking to myself. Who knew their was two of us. :eek:
    We obviously have vastly different senses on humour, no forced laughing in our household.
