Desperately Seeking Susans Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 A kind of hardcore hide n seek called ???Buzz off?? Nope. Fanny! Nope. Fanny was, I believe, used in the game called, 'Show me yours and I'll show you mine'. I remember those bally bygone days in the woods, or park, or garages in Glenburn playing four to five day long games of Relievers..... Somebody had the job of finding everyone else from their hiding places, rounding them up, but all could be released if you dared to run in and touch the post/tree..... Bit like kick the can..... Best game though was The Grand National..... Just like the real one there was always a decent injury by the end of the night. Although you're not answering my question LP, my phrase did come from, 'Kick the Can'. I was to entice the 'hen'(?) to come and find others. Doesn't anyone ever remember the phrase.... 'Get oot the den ya hungry hen ya poacher!' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
