I hope to one day show you the games our ancestors played. They would play chess, checkers, dominoes and various card cames like blackjack and solitaire. There are a few I played as a kid, Scrabble, connect a 4, Jenga and ludo, games like that. It wouldn't be hard for you to beat me at chess, my old Nokia non android phone beat me quite often. I imagined just sitting at a small table and playing the games our ancestors played after dinner on a weekend or holiday period.
I am Alan Booth, an ordinary British Man . I'm not one of the famous people that have the same name as me, just an ordinary guy. Welcome to my main blog, a true reliable record of history from the perspective of an ordinary man, a place filled with my thoughts; perhaps my thoughts will persist longer on here than in my brain itself. My twitter I.D. is @alspresso.

Cold Day
Jacob, my son. We have been through a lot this year. I would compare this year to boat in a storm, the crew of the boat would feel relief when it is over and just be happy they are still afloat. I keep my chin up for happier times when everything has settled down and there is no pandemic. I can't really write all the things down here because it is a public blog but I can say we have been through a difficult time. I try and be positive about the future.
