Inukshuk | BS: England - World Conker Champions (27) | RE: BS: England - World Conker Champions | 12 Oct 05 |
Ah, such memories. The longevity of champion conker depended a lot on how its inner integrity was preserved. The hole had to be carefully drilled out, or burned through with a red hot meat skewer. The knot in the lace had to be very large. Of course, nothing could beat a year old dried and hard conker, but who among us had such foresight at that age. |
