When the day's duties are done...

When the duties of the day are done the good folk of Tradgardland enjoy many pastimes.Take for example these gentlemen playing the game of Colf-
Colf was brought to the Duchy by a Dutchman in the middle ages. It involves hitting a ball at a local landmark in the least number of strokes.Although popular in the town ( in spite of miss hits, broken windows and cracked skulls) the game is most popular in the country.These men have a wager upon who will first hit a statue nearby...
Sixteen strokes later the game is finished,wager won and money changes hands.Little do the gentlemen know that their every word of gossip and intrigue is overheard,committed to memory and will be duly passed on.

I have a mind to try and perfect a set of rules for Colf on the table top- a few dice for distance,scatter dice/chart for miss hits etc...
