Anyone play this game as a kid.

Yeah we used to play it at my friend Danielle's house. She lived in a thatched cottage that was connected to about 20 others (it's a well known tourist attraction in Hampshire). The school idiot lived next door so we'd get him to play Garden Olympics. Running was always the first one and we'd get ready, he'd run off, we'd go back indoors.

On reflection, that's a bit mean isn't it?

Peeps and i went all the way down great northern road once* - it's the best game ever - although there's a good years worth of my clothes from first year that i can't wear as they're covered in grass stains. We used to call it 'Hedge-ing'.

ually only made it 1/3 way down as some guy was pissed off we were "shaggin' hice hadge"

used to do loads of garden hops as a kid in Stoney. There was one particular one we used to call the grand national. It was an impressive site seeing us thoroughbreds lined up ready to jump it, believe me...

Bedroom olympics is much more fun. Especially the pole vault.
