Oh wonderful I had all but forgotten about Conkers - Thank you so much for reminding me. At 63 the memory is not what it was. I guess youngsters now do not know the delights of conkers.
@davidlewis Ahh yes, conkers! I remember trying to get the hole into them and then baking in the oven to make them hard. I also remember very well when a misguided swing would have the conker hit the thumb or other part of the hand! Oh, the days!
