My dad made this thing called "The Shipping Game". Everyone gets 7 character cards, and then has to ship a character with the one in the middle. Then you have to argue why your ship is the best (and come up with a good ship name). The other players then vote on which ship is the best. We played it the other day, and it led to some interesting shipping battles...

Advice for Remy, Day 134. Make your own boardgames . Ever since I was young I’ve made my own boardgames. I remember shooting downstairs hellishly early on a weekend morning when I was probably only 6 or 7 and setting up camp at the dining room table. I’d surround myself with cardboard (usually cereal boxes which hadn’t quite been finished), paper, glue, scissors, pencils, felt tips, sellotape and all manner of other crafting materials. Before long there’d be a game being created - usually based on something like Monopoly which I already knew, but with my own take on it. My finest achievement was a formula one racing game which I made and stuck to a metal tray, so all the car pieces could be magnets. I spent many a long hour playing that game, rolling dice and moving my little racing cars round the various lanes of that magnetic track to my heart’s content. As an outlet for creativity it’s second to none, as you not only have to create something, but it needs to be something entertaining. Well recently, having played a lot more board games during lockdown, I got a hankering to play a particular type of game, only to realise it doesn’t really exist. So that 7 year old reared his head again and got all eager to create it. I’ve spent a week or so now deciding on the mechanics, designing the pieces and working out all the permutations, and tonight we’re testing it out. So by the time you’re old enough to read this we’ll either be living the high life off the royalties, or it’ll never have been mentioned again after tonight. Either way, we’ll show you how to play it. Even better - we’ll work with you to make your own.

Hello! This is @hannahslaneyphotography - taking over @tjejland for the week. This image is from The Summer Fete series. I worked on this shoot with set designer @amelia.martyn and stylist @thstyling to re-create fond memories of homemade stalls, games, and raffle prizes. The selection here is throwing wet sponges at your dad, winning crap bottles of wine on hoopla, knocking cans to win at tin can alley, and the classic smashing crockery! My still life work features re-creation of memories inspired by nostalgia and observations of everyday life. #stilllife #stilllifephotographer #hoopla #tincanalley #games #homemadegames #tjejland #craft #1980s #summerfete #femalephotographer #instagramtakeover (på/i London, United Kingdom)
