    There was a game we played called woods chasing, which it seems was a variant of manhunt. I don't remember the specifics but it generally involved people running all over the place climbing trees and hiding in bushes until everyone was caught.

    What the hell was IRA?

    We used to love building forts in woods and ditches, playing pretend shooting games "bang you're dead [person's name] to which you'd offen hear "fúck off you can't see me!" :D, tip the can, bows and arrows (was always someone left bleeding after those games ;P ), murder in the dark was also a lot of fun oooh and making swords.

    So beating the ****e out of each other featured promently in our games lol.

    While i loved manhunt we also played chasing but with a tennis ball, so the person who is "it" has a tennis ball and has to hit you with it etc... was great craic, still remember making a couple of awesome headshots

    Used to love IRA. Not sure why because I'd usually end up getting the crap beat up out of me by the bigger kids and I was too brave/stupid to give up my letter. Ended up getting half drowned in a barrel of water one time.

    Wallball, kerbs, tip the can mostly.

    We also played this great game where you had to tell a story, and it could be about anything, but as soon as THE BOILER BURST!!
