Tiddlywinks is a curiously popular sport enjoyed mostly by eccentric Brits on balmy summer evenings, but also increasingly by normal people who play whenever they feel like it. Tiddlywinks began as something of a joke but has since captured the imagination of millions, particularly in Finland, where it is the country's National Sport. While the crude creativity expressed in Tiddlywinks has often been touted as an art-form, the sport itself has been one for several centuries, and was once considered to be as classy as painting and sculpture.
