Can't do it. Not deliberately anyway.

One of my most horrific memories of being a kid was standing in the
dark waiting with my friend for a lift and wondering why the ground
was all crunch as I was fairly certain it wasn't gravel we were
standing on)

Paint numbers on in nail varnish and lob them away.

The kids on our street were into snail racing in my back garden. The
snails were all coloured for identification. The girl with the fastest
snail took her champion home to her garden. She lived two houses
further down the street. It was back in my garden the day after.
