Reminiscing

I saw these in a shop today. I remember we used to play this in the school playground back in the early 80's.
They were not something you would see in the shop back then though. We had to use our imaginations for all our playground games. For this particular one, the poor postman was harassed on a daily basis by us girls to empty his pockets of all his elastic bands which kept all his mail together. We would then join the bands together to make 'Ropies' and that was it...job done, hours of endless fun and great memories made.
