tuesday treasures

My treasure this week is this grubby old scrabble board .

My mum has moved into a nursing home and

things from her home have been shared around .

Of great interest was this board .

You probably can't see too well in this photo

but every little space around the board has

been written on .

It became an unspoken rule that the board

itself not be written on but around the outside

was fair game .

It has such silly stuff written like who was the

slowest player , who was the biggest whinger , biggest cheat

or just who was playing that day .

We spent many , many hours playing on this board

and drinking too much tea and laughing so much .

I have 5 sisters and 2 brothers and every one of us

had a great time on the weekend reading

the board and reminiscing .

I was lucky enough to score the treasured board

but I did promise to get it framed and

then we will all share it .

Clearly this board would mean nothing

to anyone else but to my family it is priceless !

We'd love to see your treasures , come and play along .
