Picked up double and dobble kids on lightning deals, should make for nice little stocking fillers... We played a quick game a few weeks ago at a demo stall and everyone enjoyed it

Boardgameguru have a few things in their Black Friday sale. Gameslore were doing a Not Black Friday sale all week that finished yesterday for obvious reasons.

just ordered super dungeon explore : forgotten king off the rainforest as its currently sat at £28 instead of the normal £60ish
it looks like a good game and the minis look absolutely great.
bad part is its going away for my birthday so I need to wait 4 months for it

I bought this too. Seemed a steal at the that price.
The game rules are what you might call - numerous.
Just did the same; I've been trying to reduce my board game expenditure, but this was too good a deal to pass up!

After you guys all buying this I want it too!
I just know there is no way I'll get anyone to play it with me, my new gf even refuses to play flux and risk

None of my friends pay board games. My eldest is 14 and not fussed (although she quite likes ticket to ride) my youngest is 3 and just about manages a game of Hey That's my Fish before losing interest.
GF seems up for it but having set aside some time Sunday afternoon to play Colt Express I take my eyes of her for a minute and she's sparked out on the sofa.
I've considered setting up a little gaming club and a local lad was supposed to be doing this like last year and it hasn't happened. Only problem is I don't have anyone to setup with and get people joining in.

Where are you? boardgamegeek.com has a forum section devoted to gaming clubs in the UK, you should be able to find one nearby.

I'm in West Wales. There's been a couple of posts on BGG for this area.
I was thinking I'll get in touch with the lad, see if anything came of it and then if not look into it myself. Only thing is, although I have a decent collection, I only know how to play a few of them!

Thank you
From this I went on to find a fortnigtly gaming club upstairs at one of my local pubs 
Rules seem a bit wonky. The "quick start" is super smooth. Then. Kablaaam! 1000 tokens / mini rules / stuff not explained in rule book.
Took us about 2 hours to crack a mini test game, think we've sussed it now. So shall start a real game on weekend.

We usually get the Colditz board out every year at Xmas, enjoy playing that
Oh man, a game from my childhood, unfortunately lost now. I wish I could find a copy of this.

I believe the Kickstarter for Evolution: Climate is still running. There's a "full game" edition that includes everything for the base game plus the Climate expansion.
