i remember playing the game, 'head down, thumbs up' at crookfur primary school in Glasgow. is this just a scottish thing? regardless of the overall meaning of the words, the feel of it reminds me of when i was young and those endless summers. where did all the time go? it seemed that you could go out playing after school for what seemed an eternity. now it feels like a week is equivalent to a day in younger years...

Nope, it's an english thing too, or at least was in my primary school.

I remember playing it in American elementary school, so it's not just a European thing.
