This afternoon, we waged war "Kato Petralona" - "Nea Sfageia". Our gang lined up at Chamosternas well before the creek, the "Nea Sfageia" across from us, in front of the little hill.

When the signal was given, the stone-throwing began. With one condition. Not at the heads. Only at the legs. Katina and I always put Aftias in the middle because when a stone comes our way, we bend down behind him and it hits him instead. He has also agreed to this tactic.

In other words, we gather ammunition from below while bending down, and he takes it, since he has big hands, and throws it far away. We have avoided countless stones with this agreement!
