It's a barrel of fun!
BARREL BATTLE By B.C. Wakelin
DO you ever feel like having a cup of tea but things keep getting
in your way? Well that's what our latest game is all about!
You have to work your way up the ladders and along the ledges
collecting teapots along the way. When and if you get to the top
you have to ring your friends to come for a cuppa.
It's great fun, but the better you get at it, the harder it
becomes.
All in all, it's pretty thirsty work!
