OK, so it works like this - one person writes the first letter of each word of a proverb, then puts the number of letters in each word afterwards in brackets.
Next person says what the proverb is, then does one of their own in the same format.
So, for example, AAADKTDA (25135364) would be "An apple a day keeps the doctor away".
This should test our grey matter a little anyway!
I'll start off with HWLLLL (236467)....
