    @Alex_Scope no it was World tour of the King Tut exhibition. Which was stored and displayed in

    LONDON: SAATCHI GALLERY

    It was really good, amazing the articles on display. Was in 2020.

    @Sandy_123 Ahh of course, my university friends and I had intended to go in May 2020 as part of hen do celebrations (not mine!), but of course then Covid happened so we never made it. We all studied Egyptology together. It did look amazing I must say!

    Hi Alex and welcome to tge Community. It is nice to see you here. I was into video gaming in my Teens, although not so much now. My interests are: music (listening to and playing), attending concerts and the outdoors.

    Hello @csno01 thanks for your kind welcome! What instrument(s) do you play? I played piano for a bit back in school, but only got as far as grade 1.

    Hello @Alex_Scope

    Welcome to Scope's forum. It is great to see you have joined our community. I apologise for only just responding to you, I have only just stumbled across your post! How has your first week been? I hope you have managed to settle in well. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask us! Would you like to tell us more about which games you enjoy the most?  :D

    Hi @L_Volunteer lovely to meet you! My first week is going well, taking on board lots of information, and enjoying it very much. 

    I can indeed, just this week I took part in Scope's Power Up and Play campaign, and challenged myself to complete Uncharted: The Lost Legacy on hard difficulty, which is very much like Indiana Jones, or Tomb Raider, if you've seen those.

    Generally I like a wide range of games, most things except horror. Some games I just put on to relax in the evening, like Abzu, which is like a virtual aquarium or ocean that you can explore, very soothing :)

    Hi @Alex_Scope

    Glad to hear you are enjoying your journey with us so far! It sounds like you enjoy a wide range of games. I personally like Animal Crossing and food games (like Overcooked). What great fun, especially when they can contribute to Scope's Power Up and Play campaign at the same time  :D

    I was very glad to have spotted the opportunity to get involved just before I started here, really enjoyed it :)

    Yes I love Overcooked, my sister isn't a big gamer, but she loves playing that one with me! We regularly end up in hysterics with laughter :D

    I play both drums and percussion. I took up the piano / keyboard just before the Lockdown, which I have had a little break from. I regret doing this and I am trying to get back into it now and I have to admit, it is difficult.

    @csno01 That's like anything if you fall out of practice for a while. Our brains can only hold so much, and I think mine is holding less the older I get!!
