They could make a whole weekend of things like this Meg.

Chasing the cheese, Nettle thrashing and Wellie throwing.
Another group could have the Conker championships in a corner somewhere.

All good English pastimes for the nutters.

I usually pull out nettles with my bare hands if I find them growing in the garden.
