Xmas after dinner party games??
Ok folks, anyone got a suggestion for an after dinner/during dinner game on Xmas day. We seem to have exhausted the normal quiz and name game type
stuff and need a change? 6 Adults range from 18 to 73(young 73) and 3 kids 3-5-7 . All with a good sense of humour, including the Mother in Law !!

we call it RAT, but it probably has loads of names.
You all sit round, and pick an animal each, your tell everyone your animal in turn.
Then one person is ON, they get a rolled up TV mag or something and have to try and hit you on the head before you remember the name of another
'animal' in the room and shout it out - if you say the name they have to hit that person before they say another name and so on
Tends to start of pretty tame but before long has grown ups charging round trying to bonk uncles head with firmly rolled up paper while he flounders
for an animals name he cant remember.

Theres always things begining with...
Pick a subject and letter and go round the table, for example Animals beginning with H and when someone can't get one they're out. You can
also do it where you go up the alphabet.
A simillar game is where you have a list of things and then pick a letter at random and all write down something for that letter in each catergory,
and every unique correct answer scores a point.
Thats a Christmas tradition for us along with Queen's Speech Bingo and the traditional afternoon kip.

Charades & Scattegories - have teams for scattegories, you'll be surprised at what youngsters can come up when you tell them what the word
styarts with (tho' possibly not the 3 year old!)
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

I often play a game I call "Collapse onto the sofa feeling stuffed" after Christmas dinner
On a slightly more serious note our favorite Christmas game is Sjoelen (pronounced
Shoola) which gets dragged out after the dinner table has been cleared. We were introduced to this after being snowed in whilst staying with some
friends in New Jersey many years ago, it really is a good laugh.
