wook77Okaly dokaly - I have a few britpicking questions for my flist... (yes, they're dumb and yes they're random but they're all important to a plot...)
1.) What do you all call mudpies? Do you make mudpies (I assume you do as it seems a universal childish thing to do)? I know here in the US, there's a ton of names for it that are fairly regional so I'm looking for London-ish.
2.) What's a sandbox called? Were there sandboxes in public playgrounds say around late 1960s/early 1970s? What sort of childhood games would be played back then? Did you have things like 'Red Rover'?
3.) Veins - do you have slang for them?

To se what he could see see see
But all that he could see see see
Was the bottom of the deep blue sea sea sea
Ta da! And it got progressively faster.
