Not understanging anything is a sure sign of intelligence. It's only when you understand nothing that the real problems arise. I've got a headache... Mr. Elbow, you have your hair wrapped too tight.

Dwile flonking for beginners 'Flonk' is Old English Ale and 'dwile' is a knitted floor cloth. Two teams are formed and a sugar beat tossed to decide who is going to 'flonk' first. A "dull witted person" is chosen as the referee or 'jobanowl'. The game begins when he shouts "Here y'go t'gither!" The rules The team which is not flonking holds hands and dances around in a circle - known as "girting". A member of the opposing team stands in the middle of the circle holding a "driveller" (a pole 2-3 ft long and made from hazel or yew), on the end of which is a beer-soaked dwile. The flonker then turns in an anti-clockwise direction and flonks his dwile at the opposing circling team. If the dwile misses completely it is known as a "swadger". When this happens the team forms a line and the flonker takes hold of a pot filled with ale. He then has to drink the contents of the pot before the wet dwile has passed from hand to hand along the line, chanting to the ancient ceremonial mantra of "pot pot pot". The team with the highest number of points wins, after deducting one point for every player still sober. Confused? So am I. Sounds like we need to try it out at the next TFFE get togoether! "Here y'go t'gither!" Live long and BOINC! Paul (S@H1 8888) And proud of it! ID: 603130 ·
