Default Have you ever played conkers?

Well have you?

I wouldn't be surprised if half of the members on here never knew what a conker was though

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.

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.

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
