                                  Them were't days !
As I've grown older I've learned that pleasing everybody is impossible, but that pi55ing everybody off is a doddle

Thank you for the days, the days you gave me.
The older I get, the better I was!

Nipsy is still played in South Yorkshire  and all equipment is hand made and is a VERY skillful game with a minimum of R&Rs.
Reputably invented by coal miners in he 30s.
I used to watch spellbound when I was a boy and glad that some brave souls are trying to keep the game alive  Was also known as Knurr & Spell.
