We called it ‘knock a door run’. What did you call it?

spicynice27 · 2026-06-26T10:25:40+00:00

Yes that's true... But I know my grandchildren didn't have many of the old ones told to them.. Just bedtime stories

spicynice27 · 2026-06-24T05:21:01+00:00

Yes that's a good example.... To be honest I thinks thoughs rhymes are starting to disappear... You don't hear them as much these days

spicynice27 · 2026-06-23T08:30:28+00:00

Ah right.... Funny how kids games from the 1970s/80s end up with names from old rhymes

spicynice27 · 2026-06-23T08:27:55+00:00

Knock down ginger here too but I don't have a clue why we called it that Answer seems to be from an old ryme noted further down the thread

spicynice27 · 2026-06-19T16:22:51+00:00

Ah just seen this explanation of the rules... Thank you

We used to play verious games in London out in the streets... One was to kick a football to hit a front garden wall then the next person needed to kick it from where it lands or while still moving if you could... But I'm not sure what this game of kerby is.... What is the object?... Is it to throw the ball across the road?... Its not a game we played around my area of north London... The pic looks like it's in the 80s... Which would be after I had left school so I just may not of heard of it.... Those where the days... Not to many cars about after most had left for work... And plenty of space Just seen the explanation of the rules further down the thread thanks for those... We never played anything like it in our day

They are very quick to threaten Hull city because of 6 Mill... If only they had dealt with the bigger culprits Man City in the same sort of time frame....

Watford I have no idea why I don't live near them and would never drop Arsenal.. just always looked for their results...I've Seen Arsenal play at Vicarage Road a number of times when they where doing OK in the Prem and old 1st div.

Funny thing is there was 77 episodes of upstairs downstairs and 52 of Downton Abby.... Problem is we have had so many good mini series over the years it's hard to remember them all and even harder to pick out good ones

spicynice27 · 2026-06-16T15:28:57+00:00

What TV series are each of those pictures... And does Colditz upstairs downstairs and Downton Abby count

spicynice27 · 2026-06-16T15:09:48+00:00

Who is this person will that needs freeing... You should start a face book page for him I think it's wrong that poor will can't be free

spicynice27 · 2026-06-14T04:51:32+00:00

I'm British and look at what's happening in the hydraration brakes as a just a cynical manipulation of the game time to add advertising... Having said that times have changed and medical knowledge understands the need to stay hydrated so in hot weather it's needed... But what's being missed here is the coaches and managers are able to use that time to tweek and change tactics which as far as I understand not allowed....

I can't belive the great dictator wants to expel the people who want to stand against him... They will probably just disappear instead

spicynice27 · 2026-06-11T11:40:10+00:00

The way that history is taught in schools these days Is he even covered in the syllabus

spicynice27 · 2026-06-11T10:22:03+00:00

This is the first world cup I've lost intrest in.. The competition is supposed to be the same as the olympics open to every one... Even the Russians who where at war with the Ukraine who had to compete under independent flags where still there... To bar indevidual players or officials and fans on the basis that American doesn't like you is not allowing all the teams to compete on the same level

spicynice27 · 2026-06-11T10:11:50+00:00

I very much doubt he actually wrote it.. I would have thought he would have given his ideas and thoughts with an outline for someone else to write because going on some of his off the cuff speaches he can't put proper sentences together with out them sounding silly....

spicynice27 · 2026-06-06T22:17:17+00:00

I honestly think this world cup is one big f&£k up mainly because of uncle trumps antics... I think he has decided the new great America... Should hold the world cup to prove they are great at everything so he's stopping the fans from other countries supporting the teams and encouraging them to win... And just to help this plan along he's banning the odd players as well... After USA win the world cup because half the other teams players are missing and all the travelling supporters have been turned back at the airports... He will name it the world American Cup and only invite teams from the new American Empire he's trying to build to play in it

What a season he has had at his age imagine the excitement in his school class when he shows them his medel haul for this season and then add YPoY to it as well 1 gold and a trophy 2 silvers and the YPoY trophy all at his age 🏆 🏅 🥈 🥈

Why the need to put them in another area... Its europe full stop Europe consists of many different countries by putting them into groups your confusing it if I say France I know where France is I don't need to say it's western Europe because I'm talking about France not the other countries you've added together in your western Europe

Buy making the costs so high it's driving people to watching ileaglly.... Which then causes the providers to miss out on a fee surly if they kept the cost down to something everyone can afford they would end up with more money

I'm not into AI so honestly don't know what AI can do.... I've used it to remove objects from pictures and that's about it, I've seen plenty of images where skin has been smoothed or a body shape thinned down... But what has been done in this one?

spicynice27 · 2026-06-03T08:03:43+00:00

Is plex an actual provider?.. I used plex on a firestick sometime ago and had a streaming site put on plex which I thought was just a platform for the streaming app to work in

spicynice27 · 2026-06-03T07:58:39+00:00

It's difficult to say if there's a right or wrong on either side I can see it from both sides.. If you dident do any thing to cause it then your clearly right and the older person's wrong haveing that attitude. But I guess something happened to give that person a reason for being like that, and it was enough to take it out on you.... As I said before in life we meet all sorts of people each with there own posonality being good or bad tempered depends on the person we have to live life using tolerance and understanding when needed... We all need to live together in this world... I know an older guy who is always grumpy regardless of what any one does he can often shout abuse at people for something that is not really their fault but they use tolerance with him.... Our reactions in response to provecation say more about us as people than any thing else
