Overall staying in a boutique hotel

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

During my last trip to Paris I decided to finally find out what boutique hotels were about. I heard about it all the time on the internet, magazines, even during conversations with friends. However, when you ask people to give you the definition of a boutique hotel you never get the same answer twice.

I decided to figure it out myself. After a bit of research on the Internet I decided to book with the Starhotels Castille on the picture below,  in Paris Louvre area ( 1st district).

She was happy with bingo

Friday, May 16th, 2008

I had no idea that kind of money was up for grabs with bingo. I honestly thought it was the kind of game people played at their local community centre for the chance to win a few pounds here or there. It is clearly big money as a woman found out at a bingo in the US last Sunday. It says in the article ’she was happy’ about winning $500,000. I think I’d be a little more than ‘happy’ if I won that much.

Educational games for young children

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

When I first heard of another online video game that teaches children (and the rest of us) about international aid, I expected the same worthy lesson in logistics as the UN’s FoodForce.

However the first stage of “Darfur is Dying” reminded me of my first foray into Duke Nuke ‘Em (ahem) , frantically tapping my arrow keys to guide my 12 year-old out of the reach of Janjaweed Landcruisers. This one will capture kids’ (and your) imagination and bingo educate them about what’s really happening. I am now mystified as to why I have not included this earlier on this blog!!

Bingo for Beginners

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

Bingo is probably one of the easiest games on the planet – all
you need are bingo cards, bingo chips, the ability to recognize
numbers, fast eyes and a prize, even children can do it.

Object of the game

The object of the game is to complete the pattern called for in
a certain game with the lowest number of calls. Patterns are
determined before the game starts, it can either be a full
horizontal, or vertical, a diagonal, an X, a box, or what they
call block out, in which you’ll have to fill your whole card.
