Lost Games


All those parents who were wondering what to do with their kids in the summer holidays, could have taken a page out of our book!
Using just the two items shown in the picture a fun game for all ages can begin. Each player has a tennis ball and a footie sock. The ball is placed inside the sock at the toe end and the open end is grasped firmly in the hand. Each player now attempts to hit the other players head by swinging the sock violently in a circular motion. The only protection allowed would be at the most an empty cardboard box with cut out eye holes placed over the noggin. But beware, should the box slip and obstruct the field of vision then you are in for a hammering! Apart for a swollen ear or two and the odd headache ther is not a lot to worry about. A real character building game if ever ther was one. More fun by combining household items still to come so stay tuned.

You can of course fashion yourself a shield of cardboard and string, but it will offer little protection and only serve to antagonise your assailant.

Aye a baffie roond the lug or a direct bit to the eyeball did fair sting a bit.

I mind seeing stars a few times.
