The Duncan 802 Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Anyone used to catch sticklebacks? I used to catch bugs and bees in jam jars, and make wasp traps with sugar water. Building dens with your mates was the best, you got that feeling of being 'safe' from adults. Especially the lump hammer type yeah used to catch em with my hands - had to handle with care to prevent being stickled! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 26,235 Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 They missed out: 51. Take a mates eye out with a homemade bow and arrow 52. Gargle with frogspawn for a bet 53. Tread on a mouse while trying to 'rescue it' 54. launch cat from an upstairs window with an improvised parachute 55. Try said improvised parachute on oneself from a very tall tree 56. catch crabs 57. scrump apples 58. set fire to a senior citizens hat with nothing but a magnifying glass 59. blag alcohol..... e Lol mate, I loved all the outside things and still do, the biggest worry is letting your kids go and have the freedom of years ago, you can't let them find out for themselves like we did, it just doesn't feel safe anymore. We were out at light and in at dark, no mobiles to check up...... I couldn't let my kids do that now unfortunately Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You maybe right mate, although I think the country has changed a lot in the last 20/25 years though....even down to some of the open spaces we played on are now supermarkets and 2 huge trunk roads.... 1 of my favorite ferreting hedges when I was a kid is now sainsbury's boundary wall.... We used to turn stones in a steam off the tidal exe and catch eels. My grandad told me he could catch them by lowering a pair of tights filled with liver into the stream at high water and wait till the tide went out and the eels would be stuck to it because there teeth got caught.... Never knew if was true or not.... Used to play a game where you had to get from one end of the woods to the other without touching the floor, we were like monkeys by 11 3/4......
