Another enjoyable game at the Melbourne Cup luncheon could be played sitting down which some of the older residents appreciated.
As you can see from the photo, small wooden horses and jockeys were attached to a string and you had to wind the string in as fast as you could. The winner got a box of Toblerone chocolates.
There’s a saying that small things amuse small minds. Maybe that should be ‘small things amuse old minds’.
We’ve arrived at our house-sit and pretty soon I’ll have a photo of Luca, the dog, to show you. I will take one of BunBun, the rabbit, too but I think he’ll just come out as one big, black blob. We can but try.

The Game looks unique and interesting!
Nice ways to keep people engaged and excited.
Good for brains as well, perhaps!
Looking towards your House Sit in posts.

I am a lover of party games and do create my own sometimes. This game seems ideal for oldies (lol)

@JudyEv Even I need to change my positions whether I am sitting or standing. The only position I am most comfortable and can spend hours is sleeping (lol)

@allknowing If I sleep too long in one position, I pay for it when I wake up.

We had a lot of fun too. Those competing had fun and the onlookers enjoyed watching too.

There's nothing wrong with simple pleasures. It doesn't take much to entertain us these days either. Looking forward to more pictures. Have a good day.
