And sometimes you land on ladders.
I’ve just spent an enjoyable couple of hours with Richard Dawson, who did the fantastic models for Spring Alpha, and Dan Blackburn, talking about the models of a snake, ladder and dice that Richard is going to make, and how the wireless RFID readers will fit inside.
The models are based on Andy Sykes’s designs, and meanwhile, somewhere across the sea, Stefan Kolgen is smoking and writing the computer wizardry to make it all work.
And the sun is shining.
Can’t last.
(Snakes and Ladders really is based on an ancient Indian game designed to teach us that life is full of ups and downs.)
