Birdy Call – A Loud Bird Calling Card Game

[Ad – Gifted Products] Every other Monday, Dann, Amelia, Robin and I get together to play a board game and have some shakes at our local Geek Retreat.

When looking for a place to eat in another country, we often go towards Asian food. This is because we both really love this type of food!

Custom Paint by Numbers from Davincified

[Ad – Gifted Products] Paint by Numbers is a concept that has been around for so long! It’s just one of those classic things that feels perfect for a rainy day or a bit of calm time in the afternoon. Davincified has a selection of paint by number kits where you can upload your own images and allow them to create a custom kit for you. Some of these kits just transform your picture into a paint by number canvas, while others can edit the picture to make it look like a magical scene or like your person can be in a Disney film, for example.
