On this Wednesday, about fifteen people pushed the door of the multigenerational room of the Welcome residence, located in the Verrerie district. The afternoon is devoted to board games, one of the activities set up by Montluçon Habitat with its partners, including the MJC.
For Adrien, who lives in the Domitys residence, this is a great first. Accompanied by Inès, he tackles… chrominos after having tried another board game, the triominos, and a classic of the genre, the Connect 4.
The association of the Little Brothers of the Poor suggested that I come here with another lady.

“People are really very friendly and you can also eat pancakes,” rejoices the sixty-year-old.
A table further, Madeleine, Monique, Claude and Jean-Pierre have engaged in a foursome tarot. “We are all three from the same neighborhood,” emphasizes Jean-Pierre, pointing to Monique and Claude. Madeleine is the little news.
The fourth
“They managed to decide me. Jean-Pierre had told me that they lacked a fourth”, explains this regular of the room, more inclined to practice computers and gentle gymnastics.
In the back of the room, while Jean-Pierre Hurtaud, vice-president of Montluçon Habitat, details, map in support, the new developments in the district, Colette, Françoise, Yvette and Dominique type the “cardboard”. The grandson of the latter, Charly, is also in the game.

Rather than staying alone at home, it makes me have a good time”.
This Wednesday, we ate pancakes to the delight of the players.
A feeling shared by Madeleine and Aline who compete in a game of… tantrix. “We don’t know this game but it works the brain”, laughs Madeleine who shares the gym activity with her girlfriend since 1998. “The lady who takes care of the room, I saw her as a kid” , she warns.
