[GiRTh]

Not for about 20 years when I was a kid. Reaching puberty I found out that stuff like that is quite childish thus have stopped playing conkers, pulling girls pig tails etc.

[MeMyselfAndI]

I loved playing Conkers when I was younger!!

[Cherie]

No, didn't like the idea of getting hurt.

[Niamh.]

Yes, I play conkers with my son sometimes as well. they have a conker championship in school every year

[smudgie]

Yes, when I was a little girl...I used to have to shut my eyes when my conker was being "attacked". Such a little wussie:joker:

[Mrluvaluva]

I used to as a kid. I loved knocking them down from trees and have hurt myself many a time getting them. Used to soak them in vinegar and use an old shoelace.

[MTVN]

Used to like collecting them as a kid, had a really good conker tree in the playing field in our village, barely ever played it properly though, always seemed a stupid game to me

[Marc]

It's the only thing you can actually do in Stroud

[Ammi]

..yeah, I used to play with the boys but usually got bruised fingers though...

[King Gizzard]

yea

[Lee.]

Yes, but collecting them was the best part!

[Sophiee]

I did sometimes at school! but I preferred collecting them to actually playing with them :laugh:.

[Fergus Mahoney]

No.

[Glenn.]

Of course I've played conkers.

[AnnieK]

Yep.....loved conkers. My brother was brutal though and it used end up in a big scrap!!
