My memories of summer school holidays (in NZ) are of being outside everyday, enjoying days at the beach etc... It was 13 degrees here a couple of days ago!!

It looks like Lewis has learned to keep in cards shielded. Hopefully fair weather will return soon.<br />Steve Gregor Daddieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04565331729101173062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2490318445933157188.post-70982427434386191962017-08-09T18:52:12.948+01:002017-08-09T18:52:12.948+01:00I like their ingenuity of sticking the dominoes in...I like their ingenuity of sticking the dominoes into the carpet pile to make the pieces stay upgright. A wooden board for the whole game would have been an alternative solution.

I will have to suggest that to them nest time. <br /><br />As to which card game they played, I think several by the sounds of it.
