what a brilliant topic!!!

do u remember also, the baddest thing u could ever do
was play knock-a-door-run!! i miss that hahah!!

Did anyone else used to make mud-pies in their gardens?!
that was so disgusting.....how could i ever think that was fun......

And when u were having a tantrum...running away meant
hiding round the corner for a hour until u were hungry or
needed the toilet and came home.......

Does anyone else remember the board games "MouseTrap" and "Hamburger?"

Rolling down hills in cardboard boxes.........

oh those were the days..........

The best was sliding down the stairs in a sleeping bag (I always ended at the bottom) or even better was sliding down the stairs on a mattress.
getting bitten by red ants because your cousin was annoying them and as you were the closest they thought it was you,

Absailing don the back of the house using only a bedsheet and nothing on the floor (oh maybe my cousin is the only person dumb enough to do that)
Making hideouts down the garden, I had one behind the sofa I used to sleep in it and eat in it,

Does anyone remember ........

the black and white Robinson Crusoe series that was always on during the summer holidays?
Mary, Mungo and Midge
Funny Faces Ice Cream
Coconut 'tobacco' - shredded coconut coated in brown sugar sold in a waxed paper wrapper that was red, I think with a picture of a pirate on it!

Yes - and you could buy the chocolate smokers set with a cigar and pipe etc. and you could get liquorice ones too. Arrow bars - all different flavours. I still have the Mousetrap and burger game in the loft. Escalado the first time round with the metal horses - it's out again now but not sure how it's changed. Metal adjustable roller skates that strapped on to your shoes! Having milk at playtime - thinking you were the bees knees if you were picked to be milk monitor. Having dinner ladies who wouldn't let you leave the table until you had eaten everything - even if you hated the taste of it. Can't think of anything else at the mo. - put it down to old age hee hee!!

Love

Whip and top. Tin Can Squat, Hopscotch , Bogie carts, Toboganning down grass on pieces aof cardboard (not good for the bum) and skipping to those stupid rhymes like "I'm a little girl guide dressed in blue, These are the actions I must do, Salute to the King and Curtsey to the Queen (can,t remember the last line)."s
Also remember barley sugar stick, licquorice root, highland toffee bars, lemon crystals with a halfpenny hard licquorice stick to dip in, wagon wheels three times the size they are now and spangles.

OH HAPPY DAYS - when kids could play out all day without being in danger, and you could leave your door open knowing that you wouldn't be burgled.

This topic reminds me of Sam Robert's song "Every Part Of Me" I just got done listening to it. It is a truely amazing song. The whole album is awesome. I reccomend it! Canadian rock!! If you take this record in consideration, I reccomend you get the Canadian release! An extra track in the middle, and it is nice to have!

"I can never bring them back, but those days remain inside every part of me!" Beautiful topic!

when I was six i had this phobia about being left in the car on my own thanks to one of my dreams...

I used to make mud pies at four... AND I ATE THEM!!!!!!

I was a tap dancer and a ballerina. Shame I couldn't dance for love nor money...

Ah the 90s. I miss them.
