I have just been watching the panel game University Challenge. I was shocked and saddened by the fact that a team of distinguished graduates including a BBC foreign correspondant could not recognise Novosibirsk, Ekaterinburg and Nizhny Novgorod on a map of the Transsib despite the fact that the town names were written in Cyrillic. And they all thought that it was funny... Let's hope our football supporters find their way around in June!

A bit of fun for people learning Russian numbers. Turn on your loudspeaker to appreciate it properly! There are more poems like this at www.ruslan.co.uk/ruslan1support - click on the link to page 60.

This is a low resolution copy of a new high quality board game for learners of Russian "КУДА ТЫ ИДЁШЬ?". As you can guess, players start at СТАРТ and have to get to ФИНИШ. Before each throw of the dice they have to answer the questions "Где ты? Куда ты идёшь?". If they land where they wanted to they get another go. If they land on СТОП they miss a go. If they land on a question square they answer a question about what they are doing there. If they land on the s...ame square as another player they say hello and have a chat. If they land on ПОЛИЦИЯ they get a ПРОПУСК which allows them through the short route "ПРОХОД ЗАКРЫТ". The board is 44 x 32 cm to fit on a desk, and comes in a plastic folder with dice, counters and cards.
The game will be launched at the UK Russian Teachers Group meeting in London on Sunday March 4th - www.thertg.co.uk. It is available from Ruslan Limited at www.ruslan.co.uk/ruslanrussianlanguagegam es.
