My daughter’s dance class used to have their shows there. There was nothing wrong with at all. It was a good stage as well.

Did these when I was messing around with ink, rollers and scrunched up paper after rdr2. Probably the loosest artwork I’ve ever done. You never know what you’re gonna get. Need to do more of that.

They actually knocked down Falkirk Town Hall last year. Nothing really wrong with it. Selling the land for flats to landlords probably. This one is next door in Grangemouth. Council seem to love knocking down venues. 🤷🏻‍♂️

It’s a cracker. And in great condition for its age.

Alisdair Wood @alisdairwood.bsky.social · 19d

Only just got it. I’ll have a look through the rules later. Hopefully there’s rules included!

Alisdair Wood @alisdairwood.bsky.social · 19d

Yeah, in really nice condition as well.

Alisdair Wood @alisdairwood.bsky.social · 19d

I don’t think so, but as usual the illustrator doesn’t get a credit.

Wonderful old board game. It was worth the money for that box cover alone!
Might make my own RDR2 buildings!
