  1. Games I Play

    Share Share Post
    The games I play are pickey, marbles, hunts, skipping, tig. I amuse myself by playing ludo, cards and snakes and ladders, and rings. The way I amuse myself in the Winter is by playing hunts and tig. The way I amuse myself in the Summer is by playing marbles. The way I amuse myself in the Spring is playing picky and skipping. In the Autumn I go nut picking and blackberry picking. The boys play hurling and nut cracking. Around the fire in Winter nights I play cards and ludo and snakes and ladders.
