(no subject)
Oct. 8th, 2005 06:03 pmThe following are extracts from something I recently found on the Web, that I had been vaguely looking for. Anyone care to hazard a guess what they might relate to (it is, obviously, a game)?
The first bully forms under the Ladder, the team playing towards Good Calx having ‘heads’.
The ball is dead when it crosses the Furrow and either stops, is stopped by a player, touches a spectator or inanimate object, or touches the garden wall in Good Calx outside the Furrow.
A furker from each team and their supporters shall form first. The furker’s foot must not break the outside line. [...]
Play may then commence and both sides may try to furk the ball as long as it remains in Calx.
A goal is scored
- if the thrower throws the ball directly onto the Door or its wooden framework in Good Calx, or onto the tree below the white line in Bad Calx.
Hint - the game in question is not Mornington Crescent, much though it may sound like it.
