Do you remember that kids’ game from the 1970s: buckaroo?
Well I’ve just discovered that you can also play it on the sofa at home.
With your wife (sleeping or awake) and every single remote control that you can find lying around, e.g. TV, video, DVD player, digibox.
And why stop at remote controls? Cordless phones, mobile phones, laptops … they all work too.

We played this game at camp once, except we used a sleeping Jamie and lots of empty Guinness cans. It was great fun…until he woke up!
