One of the choices that have to be made when you become a parent is the choice to set aside the ridiculous amounts of time you used to spend on your hobbies and instead, you know, be a responsible parent and play with your kids. My oldest daughter is almost 7 and is starting to enjoy playing board games. When I was a kid I spent MANY hours playing board games with my sister and my friends.

So I decided to do a little digging around on eBay to see if some of my favourite games from my childhood were still around to be purchased. Lo-and-behold I managed to find a copy of Waddington's Game of Dracula, a game that I really enjoyed as a kid and think that Lauryn will like it to.

It's coming from England, so who knows how long it will be. I'm looking forward to it.
