Re: Come out to play


What a coincidence Kazz as I had my family here for the day and we spent most of the afternoon out in the garden playing French Cricket but we didn't have a cricket bat so we played using a tennis racket. Katie and Jamie loved it, my daughter even said it took her back to her childhood. We all had great fun and lots of laughs!

Skipping, two balls (I was always rubbish at that), peever, and elastics.

It is years since I've done proper skipping!

Re: Come out to play


balls, skipping, chinese ropes (where you tied all the elastic bands together and 2 people stood apart from each other with them round their ankles ). Kiss, cuddle and torture with the boys in primary school. We always went for torture, no way were we kissing BOYS!!!! Hide and seek, chinese whispers, oh the memories!

Re: Come out to play


Lol CM it was only yesterday my bf said what time is it and I just said Mr Wolf with a smile hehe....

Never heard of two ball...

One of our favourite games (not at scool but in our street) was Bull Dog, (for those who dont know) you start at one lamp post you have to try and run to the other lamp post (or what ever you use) without being caught by the one person who is trying to grab you and say bull dog then if you are caught you have to try and get everyone else last one not to be caught wins lol I was quite good at escaping.
