That's the closest to my own set of rules yet, with just the nomination rule for the aces missing - which shouldn't be surprising given you were from Aberdeen, but the RGC rules above seem vastly different!
Now that you mention it, I'm not sure about the rule that I said above of the 7's transparency going down to the last card that wasn't a 7... it's entirely possible that it was just the previous card. Although I have a vague memory that the only time you would be laying on a 7 would be when the pile was burned because of four sevens, and the next player would have to lay on a non-existent 7 or pick up nothing.
I'm struggling to recall our rules for the table cards, too... I think we allowed matching cards to be played at once, and I think we allowed the play/pick up to hand rule on only the blind cards.
