SPOTTO!

My latest and greatest find! (so far this year hehe) A new game, and a wartime game at that- lovely jubbly!

‘Spotto’ is the name, and aircraft recognition is the aim (how marvellous!)- really it’s just a more informative version of ‘Lotto’ or ‘Housey- Housey’ as they call it.

You have sets of cards, all with 8 different aircraft silhouettes printed on them, and your aim is to fill the card up with the corresponding ‘named’ chips- quite simple!

On the back of the cards you have information about your card of aircraft too…

For example-

I have yet to try it out, but I tell you one thing, I’m learning my aircraft silhouettes and names before I let Pops play too!

‘THIS WAR’S GAME OF HOUSEY- HOUSEY’ (‘LOTTO’)

Learn ‘Aircraft Recognition’ while you play!

INTERESTING- INSTRUCTIVE- EXCITING

Get to know which is ‘ours’ and which are ‘theirs’

A game for all ages and both sexes

OF INSTRUCTIVE VALUE TO:

Spotters, Observers, Home Guards, Scouts, ARP, Police, Sailors, Soldiers, Airmen, Etc.

‘JUNKERS Ju 86’ ….. ‘I say old bean, that’s me!’

I can’t wait till I get a full house so I can shout ‘SPOTTO!’



This is my ‘ I haven’t got a foggiest what these aircraft are,

so just nod and smile’ face!



SPOTTO to the lot of you! (well the other players!)

This Day In 1939

Here are some snippets from ‘The Times’ sold on this day, 4^th September 1939, 72 years ago. The day before, 3^rd September, Britain had declared war on Germany…. The resulting news talked about the evacuation of children and other priority beings, air raid precautions and the services.
