    Playing Conkers as a kid (for those young uns get conker and tie string around it and whack it off another conker , whichever didnt break was the winner)

    Most people either nuked it in the oven for a few hours , added glaze to them or left them soaking in vinegar.

    Cant remember all the ways of cheating .

    varnish was always a good idea. Make your conker nice and hard :)

    I used to keep a big **** off washer on the string, id keep it in my fist when it was their swing and let it slip down the string when it was mine, it took sleight of hand but when mastered no glazed, nuked or vinagerised opponent stood a chance, spectacular obliteration,
    stampies ARE allowed goddamnit
