GDPR seems like it could blow up alright.

Always get business cards from bank people first time we meet or and tax/pension advisors etc. Don't get too much use of out them but they do come in handy when you can't remember someone's name a few hours after meeting them. Seems standard practice and would probably seem odd if they didn't have one.

business cards with a foiled qr code are the newest thing..go for gold

Out a qr code on that you can swipe when people come on to you ...makes them think it does something or something is happening. Or you can actually store info on a client account ...it's what you say to the person you are selling the card to.
But not a snowballs I'd put a QR code on it. The absolutely hack of them.

If not, download AcePlayer and look for an ace stream on reddit. Has never failed me for any game. Just click into the match thread and an ace stream link will be there

Feel a bit sorry for Glasgow, they really stretched us.
As I say every year you win nothing in Sept/Oct but you can lose the season. The only ones looking very good are Saracen but their key players will have a lot of games played by the time the semis and final roll around. Interesting challenge for McCall to have them right for May.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

Before you play each mission check for errata. it was translated from Italian and sometimes they messed something up or left something out. https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/1...-unofficial-er
Mission 3 stands out at the worst offender but a lot of them are fine.
"The Mystified Murderess" is one of the weaker cases in the English edition of Ystari version of "Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective". The reason is that the authors changed the guilty person from the original case to someone else, but forgot to fix all the entries in the English case book. This file contains updates to two of the entries of the case book, that are a direct translation of the Italian version of the game (originally posted in the SHCD forum on BGG). These updates should make this case better playable.

Think it's the last time I will ever go to a cinema though. Not being able to control sound level (I found it annoyingly loud) really is the deal breaker for me.Gone full 'Glinner' since June 2022.
