A favourite game we used to play was "commando". We'd carry a smoldering string and run around the woods at night. Our pockets would be full of fire-crackers. We'd light the fire-cracker from the string and throw them at each other! Great fun.
You can't even buy fire-crackers nowadays. You younguns probably don't even know what a fire-cracker is.
