Monopoly: Noble Version
I see that a National Trust version of our world-famous board-game, Monopoly, has been introduced. At least one Ulster property, the Giant's Causeway, features in lieu of the Oxford Street site, I understand. Those are the green properties, aren't they?
It is a most innovative idea, because sales of the game will contribute towards the maintenance of the actual properties themselves.
It is years since we last played the great game. We still possess the original London version which we purchased in the mid-sixties.
A British Empire version would be splendid, wouldn't it? Never mind; I'll stick to the good old London version, the original and best.
