Thank you Patricia. You know that book I referenced was written quite a number of years ago, and has been updated in recent times.

I saw something on television last night that generated huge excitement, all to do with even more and bigger games that were being planned and not just for kids.

This depresses me enormously when I compare my childhood and our daughter's era where playing outside was the norm.

Thanks for your comment. I am so glad I am not the only one.
