I was taught to play cribbage by my brother, who was in the Royal Navy. Certainly the term "street" was used for one side of the board, and the term "I'm streets ahead of you" was used - with a fair degree of hyperbole, it has to be said.

We also used the terms "One for his Knob" (knob being a term for Head long before it gained common usage for a lower part of the male anatomy!) and "Two for his heels" (when you turn the jack up on the pile after the deal is finished).

I rarely get the cahnce to play, these days, as my wife is not a card player - any chance of a virtual game, TEd?
