As Husband can't go to the gym at the moment we're trying to take daily short flat walks. Today's took us along the Swansea foreshore and marina development. It was so sunny and warm, and quite justified my shorts-wearing.
We're sort of shielding now, well, not really. But because various members of the family were or have been ill they didn't come round yesterday for my birthday. At the moment I'm hoping we can get together at the weekend but, once again, everything is up in the air.
Husband always like to surprise me with his presents. The unusual one this year is a game with magnetic stones.
The stones are divided between players and you take it in turns to put one down within the circle. If your stone attracts another you have to pick them both up. The winner is the first one to get rid of all his stones. As you can see we have the circle at its biggest. It's still quite challenging. I am pretty sure I know which grandchild will be first to work out which way the stones pull or push. Me, I have no idea, but anything with magnets is good fun.

I've never seen that magnetic stones game before -- looks kind of fun!
I've seen that game advertised and thought it looked fun.
Hope the consultant gets a wriggle on.
Name the game please Liz
That's a cool magnet game. Keep it far away from visiting puppies!
That looks like a game that both young and old could play.
Nice walk, I will keep you and your husband in my thoughts.
sounds like a fun game.

Liz, I came back here to find you once again. We celebrate Christmas with an Amish family, and I knew as soon as I saw your game that it would be a game that the children loved. I looked on line and found that I could order a quarter pound of hematite, and so I did. That will be one of our gifts to them. I did some more looking around and bought them a couple more things, and you know, I found my spirits rising. With all the uncertainty going on in my country right now, I wanted to come back and thank you. It was nice to think about something besides our political situation. I've linked to you on my blog.
I'm here via Debby's blog and glad to have found you. I'm looking forward to doing some back reading and getting to know you. :)
Also here from Debby's blog. Your country side is beautiful. Happy belated birthday!
