Olive dish lets you play solitaire

solitaire olive plateIf you're at a party and the guests are really boring, then grab the plate of olives (and your martini), snag a cushy chair in the corner, and play solitaire.

The solitaire olive/malteser dish by Barford & André Klauser is a 20 cm x 20 cm ceramic dish. It is available online at Thorsten Van Elten for £23.50.

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to play this kind of solitaire!

The idea is for horizontally or vertically adjacent olives to jump one another into an empty slot. When one is jumped it's removed/eaten. The object is to leave only one olive on the board, and, presumably not to get indigestion.
