- The games I play 'are:- 'Bow:- and arrow'.
It is played with a long stick and a piece of string. You have to bend the stick and tie both ends of it. You put a thin stick in the middle, you push the string and the stick shoots out.
'Cock shot' is another game I play. You put some - thing on a bank and try to hit it, standing a certain distance away from it. As many as like can play it. Whoever hits it first wins the game.
Flying kite's is another game that is played. A kite is a piece of paper with a long string rolled round it. You throw the kite up in the air and hold the string.
Another game that is played is "Ghost in the well.' Three or four can play it. One goes to the well, she says there's a ghost in the well." Then each one goes to see - when the last one goes to see - the ghost runs after them all.
Sometimes I go hunting with dogs.(continues on next page)- Collector
