Skycaptain Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Definitely not something people say around here. Although "Duck or Grouse" is a common sign in pubs with a low ceiling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceDustbin Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Not from an anglophone country, so I had to check what the game was first, but we do have a Dutch/Flemish version, called 'zakdoekje leggen' ('put down the handkerchief'). It's quite similar, but instead of touching people on the head and saying 'duck duck goose' or whatever, the person who's it has to place a handkerchief behind one of the people in the circle - who all sit there with their eyes closed, singing a song, and at the end of the song, everyone has to turn around to check the handkerchief, and after that it's basically the same as the other version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
