Kids Dont know they're born today!!
 
After watching Peter Kay again last nite & the subject of childhoods came up so i thought what a good thread to open here for a laugh & cringe at the ole days.

I remember when on a hot boring day i used to love nothing better than to pop the tar in between the cracks of the cobbles in the alleys to see if i could find the ones that squirted water back at you lol altho seem to remember countless times of getting in trouble for ruining my clothes with tar:rolleyes: .

He mentioned those multi coloured strips for the door u can now get at the poundshop now that to stop insects but was an excuse for us kids to get tangled or maypole them - just remembered they dont seem to do that a lot these days the maypole i mean lol.


Hey tv of the days before sky, that some are now on UKgold but kids tv of the times, like Why Dont You & Saturday swopshop & Going LIve????....what happened to that LOL, good ole afternoon of Lassie & littlest Hobo. Tho they still replay the ole tv gameshows n thought Jeremy Beadle was gr8:eek: LOL.

Technology of the days, the ole Atari, the orange thingy that you could play tennis blip-blip LOL, spectrum 48k & ZX those dreaded tapes screeching for 10mins just to load a game up like paperboy, jet set willy etc. The ole pc's like the BBC's with the green monitor & 5 1/2 floppys done in DOS type

Cars that wasn't so popular & lucky to have them in those days, my dad had various fords, like the angle box, various mrk escorts & a hunter that didnt last long.:rolleyes:

Xmas toys.... lol, Chav brought up about speak & spell ekkkk:), the rubix cube & cabage Patch dolls etc:eek:

Sweets.... black jacks, tub lollys, caramac's, the marathon now snickers etc.

Just think our kids will be reminising over playstations, DVDs, sky tv etc scary thought & say to their kids they dont know they were born LOL

Tiswas was the best programme on tv at the time, there's already a thread somewhere on this subject which is worth a read if you can find it.

Tiswas was great and also the Tube with Jools Holland. Used to love the A Team, how they could make major weapons (which never actually hurt anybody), out of a bit of string, bog roll cardboard and a cornflake packet was ingenious... Class...:D

I never liked the A Team - my kids used to watch it, but for me it was violence without consequences - explosions, bullets flying, but nobody got badly hurt or anything other than a bit battered.

That said, Andy Pandy could get a bit heavy, and as for those Flowerpot Men and their strange relationship with Little Weed ...

I'd be more concerned about AndyPandy and Loubie Lou - sharing a basket.
