Re: What did you do in the play ground?
 

We had a mixed playground when I was about 8 or 9 & used to play kiss chase, until one of the teachers (Miss Todd) got all the boys together & told us that the game was too rough to play with the girls so in future we would have to play that game seperately! Needless to say even at that young age the game became unpopular for every-one except the very odd few.

What a good thread, its bringing back loads of memories, did the usual, elastics, skipping, kiss catch, queenie, hopscotch also used to gather up all the fallen leaves, spread them out onto the floor into sections and pretend it was an house (junior school), senior school, mainly hung round the bike sheds giving cheek to anyone and everyone, thought having an older sister protected me from everyone. Spent most of my dinner money at the iccy van, usual stuff.
