Shogi, Japanese chess, gets played here more than ordinary chess. Shogi is more about intuition and being alert. When you take an opposing piece, it is not dead, it is yours to deploy against its previous master! Ordinary chess is more linear, more about seeing many moves into the future. Come and see our Shogi community and give it a try.

Tired of London is very popular at The Library Pot - looks like this may be a last chance to get your own copy. If you don’t know it, it’s an hilarious update in the style of Cards Against Humanity, but for miserable Londoners who are fed up of living in bloomin’ London. Which is all of us here at some time or another!!

Did you miss out on Tired of London the last time it was for sale? After living overseas for a few years, I’ve taken the final ones out of hibernation and put them on Etsy. This will be the last time they are ever sold! 🚨
