  1. Post Towns

    The game I am going to describe is post-towns. Each person takes the name of a post-town and one stands in the middle and another calls out two names of post-names and they have to change places one who is in the middle has to try to get into one of the places and if he gets into one place the person that is in the place that he gets into will be in the middle then.
