Your board is Celtic in design. Was backgammon played by the Celts ?
It seems probable that the answer is yes.
A 700 year old Backgammon Set was found on Gloucester a few years ago that has Celtic designs on it. It has been reproduced. Check it out at: http://www.backgammon.co.uk

I've got one of your sets but I've lost a stone and a dice. 
Can I have replacements ?
First of all please re-read the folding instructions. If you fold the board up with the stones and dice inside, you should not lose anything. Send me an e-mail and we will send you replacements.
If you need only one item, I'll charge you only for the postage, but more than one means you've been careless and I'll charge you 50pence per item + postage.

What happens if I spill a drink on the board ?
Wash it in a normal wash. It is 100% cotton. If it was red wine you spilled get a bucket of salt quickly ! If you wish to iron your board, turn it upside down, place another piece of cotton over it and then iron it.

I'd like to make my board into a fixed board. How do I do this?
Un-pick the seam around the edge of your tea towel and iron it flat. Buy a piece of plywood the exact same size as your tea towel. Use spray glue to fix the tea towel to the wood. Buy some wood beading, cut mitre corners to size and use No More Nails wood glue to fix around the edges.

I think the edges look better painted black. How do I do that?
If you want to do this, spray paint will give you a better finish and do this before you do any glueing. A glass top makes it a more usable piece of furniture. But if you do this, use thick non-reflective glass otherwise you will not see the board until you smash down a stone and break the glass !
