Mah-Jong anyone?  A message from Peter Gregory

Mah-Jong is a charming, late nineteenth century, Chinese game played with engraved tiles that’s become very popular with U3A groups throughout the country.

I belong to a Mah-Jong group in Peterborough U3A that was started up two years ago. Because I had some previous knowledge of the game, I was asked to teach the others how to play.

This led me to produce a web site which, besides explaining the rules, gives a gentle introduction to the game – suitable for someone who is not familiar with it.   The web site also contains lots of other information about Mah-Jong: where to by Mah-Jong sets, a list of U3A clubs, web sites you can visit, etc.

The web site name is   www.MahJongBritishRules.com.
