Spots before your eyes!

I’ve seen quite a few images on blip of various sports and pastimes such as football, rugby, flower arranging etc, but I don’t recall ever seeing one of dominoes!
A truly horrible day in the NE of Scotland today - windy and heavy rain.
However, I decided to visit my domino playing partner in Inverurie, about a 45 minute drive away.
We had been hopeful that the BBC or ITV or Sky would want to televise our match but apparently they are too busy with football, cricket, tennis etc.
But we played our games whatever.
It was very close, five games - two draws and this time I was the victor winning two of the other games.
I guess most people think of dominoes as a rather “civilised” activity but I was yellow carded for picking up a tile at the wrong time. ( a red card may be given for such things as deliberately upsetting the table, accusing your opponent of chapping, or knocking, when they could have laid a tile etc)
Injuries do occur as you can see on my opponents arm. This was caused by me accidentally nipping his arm in the box containing the dominoes.
It just has to be rather fine musical link https://youtu.be/DcYGaPiZ1c8?si=6-H1Ol4LGZNdUoBN
P.S. some of this is true!
