Lesley Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I love Pooh sticks - I always play it with Lauren and Jake at the Farm Shop which was once a mill. The 18th is also Mother's Day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 We always play pooh sticks when we're out, and we find a river. I used to play it with my grandmother and brothers when we went bramble picking, but they went and built a shopping centre over the fields and stream.

hillfamily Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I used to play pooh sticks..........always good fun We always play when we go out and find a suitable bridge. Even went to Ashdown Forest once (think that's what's it called) where the real Pooh Bridge is, that A A Milne used for his inspiration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looney Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Yay pooh sticks! I love playing although I never seem to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I love playing Pooh sticks - there's a perfect bridge in Norfolk near my folks' house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 we have a good bridge linking the two farms behind our house and we play Pooh sticks there. I have also been to the real Pooh stick bridge - it's a long walk isn't it? Especially with excited little ones who can't wait to play! To be a bit pedantic, it's not Mother's Day. It's Mothering Sunday. And it marks the half-way point through Lent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Endcliffe Park, Sheffield is the perfect place to play Pooh Sticks. A pleasant stream and lots of small bridges. Spent many an afternoon there feeding the ducks and Pooh Sticking when my children were small. Oh heck, I've come over all nostalgic!
