How to Titter-Tatter

What you will need:
One long coach journey, for example, Kingston to Barrow.#It's a long way.....#
A newspaperOne newspaper. Broadsheets, while sufficient, should not be used if a tabloid is available. The Sun is a favourite, as is the Surrey Comet - just remember to take off the back page first to read about K's on the long trip home.
A plastic bag (yes, we know it doesn't look plastic).Sainsbury's will do
Here's what to do:
Rip-roaring funRip the newspaper in strips width-ways.

Here's a helpful hint to save you time - don't rip one page at a time, do lots in one go, unless Tim Wells is singing - then do a page at a time so that you have something else to concentrate on.

(We've been titter-tattering for ages, that's why we've managed to rip the paper so perfectly - if you have trouble, don't despair. It takes many years to become a titter-tatter-master).
Take each strip, and tear squares off until you have no strip left. The squares should be stored in the plastic bag for use later.

The perfect titter-tatter is one square inch.

The world record titter-tatterer once produced 72 bags of titter-tatter on a three hour journey, all on his own, so you'd best get going.
Strip
Litter those dirty Northern groundsGather all of your friends behind the goal and, when the team run out, throw it into the air. It gives them something to laugh about, and looks great.

Nothing could be easier. You are now a titter-tatterer. Many congratulations from K's Web.
