Fox and hounds was a big favourite for a while here, on pushbikes around the village.

"Kerbie?"

Throwing a ball across the street so it bounces back off the kerb. You get points each time it bounces back and get another throw. If playing with a mate, when you miss it’s their turn. Ball was usually a football rather than a tennis ball

Used to play Spot (which sounds similar to kerbie except the ball was kicked and could be played against a wall as well as a kerb) for ages during break at school

Trying to do tipple-over-tails or cartwheels, hanging upside down on bars and railings to make the blood rush to your head, seeing who could stay stood up and walk straight after spinning around and around or finding a dandelion and asking what time it was, damn it let’s be big kids

Like hide and seek with a 'home' post. The seeker looks for the hiders, the hiders try and get back home without being found. We used to play it over acres of sand dunes and scrub.

Loved Kerbie and was great at skipping but my favourite was bouncing two or three tennis balls off a wall singing rhymes. Anyone remember any of them. I remember

Kerrie was fun. Also played kingy, which from memory involved lashing a tennis ball at someone like a weapon in order to win
