What’s wrong GB? - Feddit

When I was a kid we called it ‘knock down ginger’. No idea why. We would just knock and run. Lots of fun. Once or twice we were chased by grown ups. I don’t really hear of kids doing it today, probably because everyone has ring cameras or similar things nowadays.

it gets its name from the 1967 George McKay Shaw poem

Ginger, Ginger broke a winder Hit the winda – crack! The baker came out to give 'im a clout And landed on his back.
Oh nice, I learned something new today! Thank you.
