I remember playing British Bulldog, i loved going out to play, and we went all over the place and we played in the 'bombed buildings' ( old post war houses that were getting knocked down, thats what we used to call them) that we had near us, thinking back it was bloody dangerous but as kids its an adventure.
the freedom then was great but where ever i was i could always hear me mam calling me in
my boys liked he man and the masters of the universe too lol
i have the power lol lol
brilliant

Every christmas i try to buy my son a toy from his past. Its so exiting trying to find some of them
thats just how it was then though , we used to play all over the place an you knew what time you had to be in or you would get a roasting off your mam , our front door was always open , mam used to nip out to the shop and not bother , nobody did then ,
no way could todays kids have the freedom we had then , people are just too scared to let them out their sights , but you never really see kids playing out like we used to do you ? its a shame :

It is a shame,
as we were so active and didn't have a care in the world.My mam always said don't talk to stangers and that was it, out playing for hours
Yea kids are wrapped up in cotton wool these days. There were p*dophile around when i was growing up we had one in our street. My mam told me don't talk to mr so so he want to look at your knickers. We just listened as i didn't want him looking at my knickers
I can laugh about it now however the danger hasn't risen only our awareness due to the media has

Oh yeah, I liked my bike, skipping rope, those clacker things and those board game things. Kerplunk, Twister. Mousetrap and whatnot.
how many times you rapped your knuckles with them clacker things lol
ouch

Haha too many, it bloody hurt as well, almost as bad as getting a crack on the knuckle with a conker during a conker fight ouch
My sister had a Sindy doll and made her into a punk my mother wasn't amused
I loved player conkers But best of all was just running wild in the countryside and catching frogs and newts no wonder they are endangered now

Great idea for a thread! Nothing better than reminiscing!!
Best toy I had?... Hmmm.. It would deffo have to be my WWF (now WWE) wrestling ring, it had little buttons that made crowd noises and the likes, obviously it was made better by all my wrestling figures I had, would spend hours having Royal rumbles! Great times!
Incidentally, does anyone wish they were a kid again? I do all the time... I want my 6 week holidays back
