Impromptu Games You PlayMe and the missus were at London Zoo the other day. We invented a great game called "Spot the Paedo." We counted about 8 single men with suspicious facial hair before the end of the day. What games have you made up on the spot to play with your friends?

Another "line" gameThis one was taught to me by a mate called Steve from university (Hi, Steve), and it foxed my family for ages. To her credit, my Mum was first to twig. It only works with people who haven't played before, as will become obvious.
Premise of the game: The Quizmaster is imagining a railway line. You have to guess the rule for deciding whether a station is on the line or not by saying the name of a station and the Quizmaster says "yes" or "no".
An example could be "The line with all stations beginning with P." So "Paddington" would get a yes, but "Bank" would get a no. Do a couple of really easy examples.
Then, you start the real game. The required rule is a right bastard. The station is on the line according to whether the person says "Um" or "Er" before naming the station, or not.
This will inevitably earn you a beating from the last person left guessing, as they will feel like a right dimwit.
