Please remember to have your passport endorsed as such if you decide to visit the Uk again.
You will be sent to the nearest School yard and reeducated in the ancient art of 'Conkers'.
A game of strategy and luck,whereby one player smashes his 'nut' into the suspended 'nut' of the other player.
The object being to smash your opponents Conker to bits and thereby obtain a rating for your Conker.
Achieve a second victory and your Conker becomes a 'Twoer' etc etc etc.
Much fun was had by all. :)
