Techno II

Thanks Guys,  :-bd It WAS 'Howzat'.....

Amazon even sell it now :o....

The rollers seem to be plastic these days. (I remember those as metal ?), and in the little piccy, on Amazon, there are a number of red 'tiddly-wink' counters.....Don't remember those , at all.
£7-99p, to you sir.(I wonder we paid for it way back then ?....Two shillings ? (10p))

Alexander's cricket game rings a bell.

I had another cricket game where the bat was roughly the size of a lolly stick...the stumps were cocktail stick sized (ish).....the fielders sat on thin wooden bases....you were out 'caught'  if you knocked one over..the bowler used an elastic band attached to his arm to send the ball down. (This was fine until the band broke, and you replaced it with a stronger band...This meant you couldn't even see the ball flying down the pitch !! ;D ;D ;D ;D

Cheers - Phil. :)
