    Apparently that is how they train the new doctors in the N.H.S with operation. If they touch the side then they have o re sit that year.

    I used to like magnetic football. But i fell over the pitch and broke the legs. I had a cracking Fisher price garage with a ramp and lift that wound up. Brilliant hours of fun.

    Kerplunk was fun but like mousetrap it took too long to set up. I love snakes and ladders and when we got to the top we would go up the snakes and down the ladders all the way to the bottom.

    it seems like children played the same sort of games but with different names.
    British bulldog was a fav at my school.

    One of my favourites was my Sketch-O-Matic, sort of like the I-Pad of it's day
