..only sherbet dabs.

Until now, I had never heard of 'snobs' or 'dabs' as game names.

So, inspired ...


A Saatchi while once between jobs
Rebranded the 'jacks' game as 'snobs'.
When asked why he did this
He replied it was his biz
To stop it being enjoyed by the yobs.

Gosh - you have been busy little bees havent you!!! I am very impressed with your findings. I have never heard of Snobs as a game though I did used to play Jacks. Many, many thanks to all of you!!
I have one last challenge for you !!!
29. This unseeing (nasty) person could belong to another category.
Begins with B, could be gem/mineral or game/pastime (the other category is nautical)
Thinking caps on boys !!!!

Hi Polly Dee,

How about BLIND BOGEY? It's a golf tournament format but I can't see why it would fit into another category.

I apologise for the brevity but I have to be somewhere else in 20 minutes!

That\'s why I had Blind Pew cos that was also nautical but I must have googled hundreds of pages trying to make it a game with no luck

Have you got cable for 6?

I never knew it as anything else than snobs - see educational this quizzing lol

Many thanks !!! Will investigate 'blind bogey' certainly 'nasty' !!!
Thought of 'blind mans buff or bluff' but not happy !!!
Yes mysterygirl I have the same for 6.
