hi,
been living in england for a number of years and was taught the game of cribbage. i can't seem to find another german who knows the game or would like to play it..
any english/irish people out there who are up for a game and might like to meet up once in a while?

I used to play it. I believe there's a card version of the game and a domino version. Is that right?

i must admit i've never heard of a domino version..i mean the card game, the one they used to play in cribbage tournaments in pubs once upon a time (so i've been told). unfortunately that was before my time. ;-)

A young spring chicken like your good-self should have no problem finding a partner.

haha hardly a spring chicken..:-) anyway crib might be a bit out of fashion so probably won't be all that easy to find a partner..but you never know.

I love playing cribbage (childhood memories) but the commute to meet up with you is a bit, shall we say, excessive? C'mon down to Munich and we can 15-2, 15-4, 15-6, trip for 9, nobs for 10 all night long.
woof.

oh what a shame..i agree munich is just around one corner too many. well not to worry. if you're ever in dresden or i'm ever down in munich i'll take up your offer.

hi straker had already given up on crib ;-) ..almost. yeah would be great to meet up..maybe in some pub? haven't got a clue where you could play cards though without getting a lot of strange looks..but hey who cares anyway, maybe you can think of some place?
bit snowed under at work for the next 10 days or so i reckon but i'll definitely get in touch with you after..c u then!

the domino version i can also play maybe back home we just called it dominos but i can remember you score point by getting multiples of 5 and also by finishing the game. while i have been in dresden i have not found anyone that plays this game but just going out first seems to be the game most of my south or central american friends play.
