I have never lost a holiday backgammon championship in 4 holidays to date.

Today, we say goodbye to Ad Astra Villa in Wadduwa, Sri Lanka and, under extreme duress, I am sad to report that the backgammon competition has taken a turn for the worse.

In an unprecedented holiday championship, the score now stands at Pedro 52 & Clare 32. Pedro’s dice throwing has been nothing short of magical.

Thankfully, we still have 33 days of holiday for me to grapple a comeback. Currently, gains are small and infrequent. Wish me luck ✊🏻
