We enjoy playing Scrabble in the caravan and was looking for any recommendations for games for two players.  We enjoy games like Monopoly, Cluedo and Risk but these aren't the best for two players.  Any ideas?

We usually keep a pack of cards in the 'van, but can't remember the last time we used them.

Years and years ago (in our trailer tent days) we bought a game called Pass the Pigs.  Unfortunately the game was stolen with our van back in 2009.  When we got the new van, one of the first things we bought was a 'Pass the Pigs' game.  It a sort of family tradition.  Good fun!

We've got Pass the Pigs David.  We keep it in the van.  Very good game.

We play a lot of card games in the van, and it gets quite competitive so much so that we've got a set of casino chips so that we can play for "money" without really spending any. My 9 year old grandson enjoys playing rummy, brag, pontoon and knockout whist. We've also got Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit with two levels of questions one for adults and one for children so we can play on a level playing field.

Backgammon, years ago we would keep a board in the van but today we just use the iPad! We play either against the 'computer' or against each other using the app!

OH likes scrabble but I hate it so it stays at home. I like draughs OH doesn't. Can't play chess or backgammonEmbarassed we do have a game called boggle but he always wins at that so won't play it with him. The one we both like is Othello but forget to put it in van. If the weather is bad then he tends to read or use his tablet/laptop and I usually read or do a jigsaw, peace and quite reigns.

Aldi are selling travel games this week so I got their version of battlesips which 9 year old grandson is delighted with and also a version of hangman.
