and i remember a skipping song that went something like this...

My mother and your mother were hanging up the clothes. Your mother hit my mother right in the nose. What colour was the blood? Red, black, red, black,....

i think the rope went fast on 'red, black...', and you jumped until you tripped the rope. does that one sound familiar to anyone?
