In the Uk I would go out to dinner, to the theatre, have dinner at home withe friends and play trivial pursuit (then my ex husband wouldn't talk to me for days coz I knew more than him!). Here we play dominos at our colmado. In fact there is a game going on on the patio of my house as I write. But, I am confused about some of the rules. So here's hoping you can help.
1. Which way should the first domino face. Every time I put it down someone moves it the other way round.
2. Why does one side go one way and one another?
3. Why do you 'bang' the domino down? Someone said it is giving a signal to your partner. Fine. What's the signal?
4. How do you spell 'capicure'? Can't find that one in the dictionary.
5. How come my pool man can't count to 5 (need 5 drops of stuff in the pool pregnancy device to see if it needs chlorine or acid) but can add up dominos like you have never seen!!! He says it is the spots which are different from drops of pool pregnancy tests!!!
6. How come Dominicans who normally can't remember the day they were born, can work out exactly who has what dominos?
7. Where the the fact that people play for eggs come from?
Any help you can give me would be gratefully appreciated. (By the way - no sign of transformer being connected!!! Surprise, surprise!!!)
