Title: Query Post by: Bainn on September 02, 2006, 12:48:43 PM So there i was, thinking ahead to BB3, and wondering if my card protector would be allowed?
It is basically a very simple Voodun charm, you know, a bit of bone and a couple of beads. So are there any official rules regarding the use of esoteric mystical objects as card protectors in UK card rooms?

Nope, the bone is just attached to the seeds/beads. Title: Re: Query Post by: Colchester Kev on September 02, 2006, 01:04:02 PM Perhaps this will help answer your question Mr birds nest beard ....

Title: Re: Query Post by: Bainn on September 04, 2006, 11:33:56 AM i cant wait to see this!!! can anyone join in without giving ones self over to the dark side? Afraid not, the ceremony can only be performed be someone who has practiced Voodun for many years, requiring a deep meditational mind set and stamina as the ceremony is very draining. The Loa can react badly to being summoned and you need to be ready for this. You don't think the casino would mind a little chicken blood ?

If he's lost and wandering the streets of Walsall in the cold and dark i cant see him being that happy!! (i know i wouldn't be!! :D) He's free to run off whenever he wants but seeing as how he gets the run of the treehouse, his own tyre swing and as many bananas he can eat with me while helping me win money at poker hopefully he knows when he's on a good thing!

He tried that once but as soon as he realized he would have to forage for food himself whilst in competition with other jungle creatures he soon returned to life on easy street.
