Rummikub Classic
Rummikub is a tile game and claims to be the UK's no.1 family stategy game. The tiles are numbered 1 to 13 in four colours. Each player starts with fourteen tiles and tries to discard them in sets, three or more of the same number but in different colours, or runs, three or more consecutive numbers in the same colour. The first to clear his tiles is the winner.
Rummikub was invented in Romania 70 years ago by Ephraim Hertzano following the Romanian government's decision to ban card games. It works on a similar principle to a central European card game called Vatikan, played with two packs of cards, with tiles substituting for cards. Initially Mr Hertzano made every game himself, carefully cutting and painting each tile by hand in his little workshop. Word spread about the game and it slowly began to be exported. In 1977, it became one of the best-selling games in America. In 1980 it won Game of the Year in Germany and other awards in Holland and Poland in subsequent years. It is now exported to more than 50 countries from a high-tech factory in Israel still run by the Hertzano family.

2) Evri delivery to one of their parcel shops. Please use this service if you are not going to be in to meet the postie or you have not got a safe place for the postie to leave your parcel.
3) Pick up from our shop in Lyme Regis. Free but please give us a couple of hours after ordering before coming in.
We try to reuse as much packaging as possible. Your parcel will be securely packed but probably not very elegantly.
In theory, everything available to buy on this website is in stock. We are however a very small shop and we try to stock a huge range. This means that we will rarely have more than one or two of each toy or clothes size in stock. Occasionally though we do get orders and we can't find the items. Often it is my fault, having I made a mistake when checking goods on arrival into the shop or when stocktaking but sadly we are also noticing more items simply missing from the shelves.
So please accept our apologies if you order something and we can't fulfil your order. The website is set up so that we don't actually take your money until after we fulfil your order. You will not pay for anything we don't have.
