I Remember when I was a Boy

[Winnie]

You a young'in Winnie? Not that there is anything wrong with that. Its really great how people here of such a broad age range can get together and have a good time.

Don't tell me you're gen "Y" ???

Mate I'm only 19, BUT I'm almost 20!

I remember when I used to come home from school, I'd jump on the motorbike and ride it until the sun started to go down even if it was crappy weather. That was only about 10 years ago but all kids do when they come home now is get on facebook and talk crap. McDonalds was like the greatest treat over and only had it about twice a year, now it's what you get when you're pissed at 3am and nothing else is open.

I remember when I was a boy.....

A box of matches was 2 cents, a packet of PK or Juicy Fruit was 5 cents, when we got our first colour tv, a Western Wagon Wheel was 5c, we had a black Vanguard.

My very first day at school I had to get on the bus, but ran away. The teacher came to my house and talked to me.

Caught a few rabbits with nets and ferrets (sorry Rod)

Platform shoes and purple flares!!!

How could ANYBODY forget my English teacher. PML

Enough memories for the moment. lol.

Well I remember when I was about 10, we used to visit my Nanna, down the road was a deli with a lane behind it with a picket fence.
The Deli owner was a sorry old sod, and he would stack all the big Coke bottles against the fence.
Being enterprising lads, we would slide a picket sideways, grab 4 or 5 big Coke bottles and take them around to the shop, where they would give you sixpence a bottle.
We would do this several times a day, the old sod never woke up to us, he'd be dead now for sure, hope he has forgiven us.
I loved going to visit Nanna lol
Cheers, the ferret.

A couple years ago Mum was telling me how when they had left over rice when she was a kid that her mum put it in a bowl with milk and sugar and sometimes banana too. Well she made it for us to try and I spat it out pretty quick lol wasn't too nice.
