The Card Shark

Lulu comes from a family of card and chess players (Mama, my sister and my Daddy: Lulu's Grandad), therefore it comes as no surprise that she is fascinated with the chess board and the various decks of playing cards in the house.

However, it is not 'Whist' or 'Chase the Lady' which Lulu wants to play today, but a bizarre, thoroughly irritating , challenging game which she was given when she went to visit Father Christmas yesterday. This game has a hundred plastic bits and bobs, lots of cards and no rules. It is unfathomable. Indeed, it is only Lulu who appears to know how to play it, which makes it doubly tricky if you are her opponent...

She's currently on a roll, having won every round; nobody can touch her...Here she is waiting for Daddy to make his next move...
