"Playing footy on the road with two jumpers as posts
Mmm - isn't it?
Marvellous."
I mean, I'd be totally unable to play footy on the road nowadays, but it was fun as a kid and you don't see it anymore.... |

"Knock-door-run
Is that still a thing? So much fun when they would come out and shout at you as you ran away"
We called it chickenelli
Or there was a similar one called milk bottle where you’d put a glass bottle on the handle before knocking and running away |

"Putting about 5 bangers ( fireworks ) in with the milk in the local co op then just stand there and watch the shop get covered in milk after multiple harmless explosions.
The mr "
Never tried this one, sounds a bit serious...
If my parents found out my Dad would have kicked my ass
There’s another one...
Behaving because you were scared your Dad would whack you if you were naughty (notice how I didn’t say spank, not even once  ) |

Packs of pet dogs playing out all day. Everyone on our estate used to kick the dogs out at 8am and let them back in at 6pm like that was a completely normal thing to do.
My mum sending me, a six year old child, round to the corner shop for a quarter bottle of Bacardi and ten superkings, and the shop serving me with no questions. On a related note, prams outside pubs.
The grinding, screaming noise of the dredgers going up and down the river all night. I don't know if technology has improved or they just don't dredge any more, but I never hear it now.
Packets of bread sauce older than I was, because they came with the Christmas hamper my mum saved all year to get, but nobody ever used it so it just sat in the cupboard. There were always a couple in the harvest festival donations too. |

Ah see I hadn’t played any console between the PS2 and Wii so I think I could still handle the N64 controller quite well  |
