This week The Valleys saw some classic bard game fun.
Giant Snakes and Ladders was a big hit with our residents who enjoyed rolling the dice and seeing what Lady Luck had in store for them.
Originally an ancient Indian board game, it was associated with Hindu philosophy and the idea that your destiny was determined for you.
Judging by some of the exclamations that were made when people slipped down the snakes, we are not sure they remained philosophical about the way their luck turned out!
