Thanks for that DrAchoo... it was only my 3rd challenge! I hoped that might slip under the Radar!

I got a wicked idea for this one, but need some help with props. So if anyone knows where I can get two playboy-bunnies and a bathtub of custard PM me...

You never played marbles? when I was a lad a Stonker was a big steel marble that wiped the floor with smaller marbles.

Mr Gooogle goes along similar lines ...

This comes from the verb stonker, which at one time could mean to kill, but is now the action of outwitting or defeating somebody. It is generally said that this in turn comes from an old Scots term stonk, originally and oddly the stake in a game of marbles. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the first recorded use of it was in John Jamiesonâ��s Etymological Dictionary of the Scottish Language in 1841, in which he said that stunk was â��the stake put in by boys in a game, especially in that of marblesâ��. According to the Concise Scots Dictionary, this is now only local Scots dialect, and it suggests the Scots got it from local English dialect (do try to keep up), which might have originated in stock, a store, presumably the bag or other container the marbles or money were kept in.

In simple terms shanksware at least you made the last 16 ;)
