Topic: Does anyone still do the Limbo?

[FlashingBlade]

At family do's and the like....60/70's maybe 80's...a pole would be produced...a broom stick... and the cry 'Limbo' would go up!

A lost culture..or is a thriving Limbo group of hipsters reviving it?

Ahh, good, a classics thread

Limbo, as described in Dante's Inferno, is the first of the nine circles of Hell. It is reserved for the souls of those who lived and died having never known the glory of God or the blessings of Christ.

We have all the time there is to discuss this ... Don't be shy. Sit, sit!

Limbo or Purgatory?

Definitely an Ecumenical Matter.

Limbo and “oops upside your head” were party favs back in the day.

In fact I’ve seen oops upside making a comeback at a few do’s I’ve been at quite recently

I could see you as a conga instigator back in the day Pete. Tie round the head, hands around the waist of Debbie from Accounts…I’ve said too much.

This has reminded me of a few party games as a kid, which looking back seem like torture.

Pass the parcel.

Eating jelly through a straw.

Eating a frozen bar of Dairy Milk with a knife and fork, while wearing mittens.

Fun games. Or maybe my parents were just arseholes.

Actually Pete went on to marry Debbie and they still live happily together to this day with their charming children Lorraine and Martin.
