We`de play football in the street using the old womans wall as the goal and always ask for the ball back when it went into her yard.
She always moaned but we were nice to her - until her back was turned!
Lads [its never girls] did wheelies on bikes and bunny hops up and down the kerb.
Reminds me of what we did so innocently as kids, especially during the long summer holidays, which never seemed to end.
Drifting off for miles untill Mam found us and gave us a thick ear.
Thinking of when we used to go scrumping and playing "rat-tat-ginger" down the neighbouring streets, hoping the nasty old fella at no. 42 would come out, so we could shout rude words at him and try to get him to chase us down the street.
Nicking pop and beer bottles out the back of the pub yard and taking them round to the "offie" to get a tanner back on each bottle.
Mam taking us lads to the barbers and telling the barber "they`ll all have short back and sides"!
