Idont think they are allowed to play british ball dog in school ,its all health and safety gone mad .
i think the in game for playtimes now is take down tag where your apponements rugby tackle you to the ground .But they have also banned them from playing that ,probebly due to angry parents complaining of muddy or torn clothes .

My mate Larry Mallinson and I used to go around confiscating cigarettes from the 1st, 2nd & 3rd years and sell them on to 4th & 5th years. Nice little earner but we both got suspended and threatened with expulsion. My dad went ballistic

I had to collect one penny from each year, old pennies that is, and I used it to start my first bank account.
We also collected marbles, conkers (at the right time of year) and those football cards you used to get with sheets of bubble gum cant remember what they were called. Also flags of the world that was quite interesting.
