Oh Jenni - mousey, mousey is a blast from the past. I used to love that game, but haven't played it for years!

I like the sound of your Xmas Dorothy - I think Christmas gets better when the kids get grown up - my eldest 2 were the most fun this year, as they actually WANTEd to play monoploy and rummikub, etc, etc. My younger teenagers just flumped around as teenage girls do - you need them very young like Jane's daughter or grown up I reckon to have the best fun.
