Jan-Michael Vincent dies age 74.  RIP. Remember him from the 1980's in Airwolf and also from a small appearance in The Undefeated with John Wayne.

As if International Womens’ day isn’t enough, I’ve had ‘votes for women’ as a reply every time I’ve asked for a cup of rosey all day, and now it’s ‘Made in Dagenham’ on the bloody Beeb, Christ alive, if it’s not enough that they’ve got the vote..... ?

Women have got the vote? Bugger, I missed that bit of news. Things will never be the same again. Disgraceful!

Think I’ll pass on participating in this, the old knee giving me a bit of gip, otherwise I’d be right in there!

Ashbourne i believe, was that the first half or the second?, it goes on for two days. You'd think one day of that would be more than enough for anyone.

Atherstone in Warwickshire, and only 2 hours for this variant.

 

Though there are other towns with this sort of ‘game’

 

Brilliant piece of medieval throwback stuff, obviously the destruction of the property is bad, but it’ll be a sad day when/if this ever gets banned.
