The Oldies Thread




I wonder how many kids today have ever built a bonfire. I bet most of them haven't even got close to one already built ...
The stuff we got away with going to the woods in the Autumn & butchering any old trees - the furniture we burnt going on the knocker probably antiques burnt :D - then the den at the bottonm of your massive bonfie a true fire hazzard when in it ... fireworks sold from any hardware shops - all before NOV the 5th - then you looked forward to Christmas - plus you has penny for the Guy knocking on doors at night ...

all now outlawed ....

This time of the year was conkers and apple gorging,including any other edible fruit on someone else’s trees.
I still know where all the best apple and damson,plums,goosgogs are.
Sadly my days of climbing up trees are long gone.
