The rules

How to play

1

Players sit in a circle on a hot day.

2

One walks around with a cup of water, dripping a little on each head saying 'drip… drip…', then tips the lot on someone with 'DROP!' The soaked player leaps up and chases the dripper around the circle to the empty spot.

3

If the dripper is caught they go again; if they make it, the soaked player takes the cup.

Keep it fair

Swimmers or old clothes only, and everyone agrees to get wet before joining, the only bad version of this game is the one with an unwilling player.
