What to do in 2021
So, if like many of us you are bored and spending your time wondering how to spend your time,
maybe this will help.
I found a site that allows you to play cards over the internet - (ok, someone else found it and told

If you are already using this site, or another similar one, you can stop reading now.
If you would like to play cards with one or more friends, then carry on reading.
