We sang a version of "The kings horses" repeated again and again, faster and faster until everyone collapsed giggling:
"The grand old Duke of York (sitting) He had ten thousand men He marched them up the hill (stand quick) And marched them down again. (sit down) And when you're up you're up (stand) And when you're down you're down (sit) But when you're only halfway up (half out of the seat) You're neither up nor down." (stand quick and sit quick)
Now you have me started on a whole new segment for my memoirs "Kids' Songs and Games of Yesterday".
