I find chess tedious, but that´s probably my dad made me play when I was younger. Or because my spacial perception is not too good. Or because I´m terrible at it.

What I do is crosswords, I´m quite hooked on them and buy a lot of them when I am in a Polish shop. Somehow the English ones you may find in a newspaper do not do it for me, I never know the names of people Brits consider famous Also, I love playing HOG-adventure games that usually have a number of different puzzles. And I am addicted to jigsaw puzzles. The biggest I made was 5,000 elements and I´d love to do the Ravensburger 18,000,000 but I´d have to send my 3 men for a loooong holiday and remove all furniture from one bedroom

Armegon - did you have speech problems as a child? I mean because of your cross-lateralisation.

It´s OK if you disagree but I disagree with your statement with grass involved in it. It depends on how you look at it. You´re supposed to start some (chemical/electrical/...) reactions in your brain while you´re looking at it.

  si++...the only chemical reactions that happen in my brain while playing chess are the ones that induce sleep!  However, chess is a very loved game in my family so I have always been a bit of an oddball.  We can agree to disagree...
