Silvio Tattiescone Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Surviving a Methil childhood wasn't easy. We had a game called "chuck ma heid". A length of washing line was tied around your head whilst a brick was tied to the other. You had to walk along a 20ft high brick wall while your mates threw the brick over in an attempt to either detach your head or make you fall off. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm very wealthy, yo) I've just spent probably 30 seconds waving my hand over the food waste bin and wondering why it wasn't opening. You have to be (Adj) challenged.

btb Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) Mary Poppins is now rated PG due to discriminatory language, namely the term Hottentot which is used twice in the fillum. Edit Quote The reclassification affects only the cinema version of the film, with home entertainment versions still rated U, according to the BBFC.

TxRover Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) On the different sports trend, Kabaddi…kinda like violent tag. Wandered into the butcher and they’re watching it on ESPN. Yea, it’s interesting, but it made me think back to the “Ocho” references in Dodgeball. Edited February 26 by TxRover 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember kabaddi on Channel 4 decades ago, played on dusty courts in bare feet. Looked it up on YouTube when they added it to Flashscore, to discover they've Barry Hearned the shite out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did anyone else get a turn of being tied to the brick or did the rules insist it was always you? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
