Games with the Girls

Mexican Train Dominoes, this is a game I play twice a month with a group of friends, sometimes, like today, there are only six of us, other times there could be twelve or more. In which case we would need more than one game. This all started from learning to play Backgammon, then one day someone came back from holiday in America with a box containing Mexican Train Dominoes.
We have such a laugh playing this game and it's become so addictive that we never want to play anything else. The number of tiles each person has, depends on how many are playing, you start with the highest double and play out from that. If someone has a tile matching the double then they can start an extra 'Mexican Train' which anyone can play on. If a player can't go, then they have to place a train on their line and anyone can go on the train, until the original player can go on their own line again, then they can claim it back by taking the train off. Sounds very complicated but such a laugh.
The photograph is not good composition wise, but I thought I'm make it my picture of the day.
