thursday   10 #13 Posted February 7, 2007 We said "Feignights" ( fay-nites? ) and held up crossed fingers when we wanted a rest - usually when we were in danger of being caught! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
peterdo   10 #14 Posted February 7, 2007 We also played Chain tiggy ,where you held hands to form a chain until the last one was caught. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Puffin4 Â Â 10 #15 Posted February 7, 2007 I think that at Woodthorpe school in the 1940's we gained a little respite in a fast moving game of tiggy by crossing our fingers and shouting "keys". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Grappler   12 #16 Posted February 7, 2007 It was crossed fingers and "kings" for us, and we also played T"iggy Off Ground" and "Tiggy Lampost", plus "Tiggy Hospital", which was where you had to hold the part that you hade been "tug" on, example; if the person that was on "tug" you on the arm, you had to chase the others while holding your arm. Of course we all tried to tig people on the arse!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

glaham   10 #21 Posted February 7, 2007 We used to say 'Jinks' for immunity. Tiggy-chain was called flying sausages. Then there was British Bulldog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
alirosdan   10 #22 Posted February 7, 2007 My son plays 'tiggy bob down' where you are safe if you are crouching down, and Tiggy shadow (but they can only play this on a sunny day, for obvious reasons). He says they just do the 'time out' sign when they want a break. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
