    I remember when I was a boy.....hang on Im only 23 . However I do remember when I was about 8 yrs old much like 89 we would get home from school and ride our pushies around the suburbs until dark and then same again on the weekends, we would ride to local bmx tracks or any skate parks, dirt jumps then ride home. We had no gadgets just our bikes and only had maybe 6 channels on a analogue TV.

    We could go to the shop with $2 and get a $1 worth of lollies and a can of coke and get change. And I can remember fuel being less than 50c a litre.

    I know I am apart of this generation but we are not made like they use to be. The wiser, older blokes in this thread would work us under the table and still out do us on the piss and get up the next mroning and do it again.

    To Gen X and Y:

    Surely you guys & girls have something to contribute.

    Everyone has a "I remember" to tell.

    Sure some of us may be over the hill, but we still enjoy a good laugh and reminiscing.

    No rules here, you can even pretend.

    I remember... when I was a boy:
    Specials at supermarkets often had a limit of 2. Dad would bundle us kids (me, my brother and two sisters) into the car, drive half way across the city, and then have each of us take it in turns to go through the register to buy two cans or packets of something that was on special.

    I remember a bloke mum and dad called POOSEY BILL,
    apparently he'd empty the toilet cans before we got septic tanks
    thus the term flatter than a S^&T carters hat

    Hehe, I remember when LG+PG first came out and I was one of the first to have a straight gas system fitted to my car. 650cfm custom made gas carby. Gas was a whole 8cents per litre! Or was it 6...
