I loved playing that -- we used to do it that you could use the pack of cards to hit down on the hand -- so you could jag up the lay of the card pack, pulling some cards a bit out to make teeth edges -- it was brutal. I loved the pain.

British bull dogs was ace, although sometimes I used to let go as I was scared of some of the older boys. Kiss catch was always a favourite in my primary school. I have to admit I used to cry if I was caught as I didn't want to be kissed.

I'm saving up conkers from last year so they're really rock hard to play with my son and his friends.

I used to love playing hide and seek.

Ah the tiny places I'd squeeze myself into!

The ball in a pair of tights one, can't remember what it was called. Remember one of the rhymes though:-

Want a cup of tea sir? No sir , why sir. Cos I Gotta cold Sir. Where you get the cold from? from the north pole sir. what you doing there sir. Catching polar bears sir. how many did you catch sir one sir and so on..,,

Everytime the word sir was said we bounced it between our legs.

I think it was a premonition of my future.
