In Vic it's Jack in the Pack, or Markers up depending what primary school you went to (from what I've found).
I've never heard someone so Markers Up to be completely honest. All my life whenever I've gone to the park, everyone has been calling it Jack.

Yeh I'm pretty much in the same area, just a bit further out in some of the suburbs. Guess it just must be what primary school you want to.

Markers up for me.

Perhaps it depends how old you are as well? like one generation used that gay jack in the pack or whatever you spastics called markers up.
