Hi everyone!
I'm Tim and I'm writing to tell you about my hobbie - board games! I play them with my friends once a week, sometimes on Mondays, sometimes on Wednesdays. We play different games, for example chesschess, draughtsdraughts, Go, Monopoly, and Scrabble. I love playing chess, but it's still a bit too difficult for me, so my favourite game is draughts, or checkers in American English. I'm great at them! But I practise with my dad at the weekends and eventuallyeventually I will beat my older brother. As for other games, I like them all, and I like learning new ones the most. The only thing I'm not a fan of is Mancala, because I always lose. Even my lucky pawn doesn't help me!
