Our favourite game when we were kids on a journey was Pub Cricket. The number of legs on the pub name was the number of runs you scored. Red Lion - 4 runs, The Dog and Duck - 6 runs and so on. No legs, eg The Queen's Head, meant you were out and it was the next player's turn.
Much harder to play these days sadly due to the number of motorways and trunk roads bypassing towns and the enormous reduction in the number of pubs.
