You will experience exhilaration, frustration, delight and infuriation (not seriously!) when you play this ancient Chinese game whose aim is to be the first to complete one of the many combinations of suits and numbers possible with the small decorated tiles. Methods of play vary in different parts of the world, but we follow the rules set out in the book 'The Game of Mah Jong' by Thompson and Maloney (Kangaroo Press. ISBN 978-0-8641-7302-7). You will need your own copy of 'The Book Depository', from Amazon etc. As we play at tables of 3 or 4 people it can spoil the enjoyment of games if anyone has regularly to leave before the end, so we appreciate players who can commit to the full 2 hours. (Obviously emergencies are different). A friendly, fun-filled, not over competitive atmosphere prevails.
