Playing Cards
It's been very tiring with all these adventures in December being the Bear On The Stair, so I suggested a nice quiet card game with some friends. I picked the game 'Donkey' which involves colourful playing cards featuring lots of different animals - we especially liked the Koala Bears. Each teddy bear takes it in turn to choose a card from another player (with the cards turned upside down of course) and the idea is to match two animals the same and then you can take that pair out of your hand.until you have no cards left. The only downside though is that there is only a single card for the Donkey, and whoever is left with that card loses. That looks suspiciously like the ear of a donkey on one of your cards, Alfred!
