you had to stand on the toilet to brush your teeth?
when the christmas tree seemed HUGE and now you look at it its only 4foot
when saturday mornings were "Going Live!!" with gordon the gopher... and where is Ed the duck now?
when 50p was your pocket moeny and you could go buy sherbert dib dabs, a jamboree bag, sherbert spaceships and those little chocolate buttons with sugar multi coloured sprinkels on em.
racing home from school and watching He-Man,jace and the wheeled warriors, Thundercats, Bucky O'Hare and you wernt allowed to watch grange hill cos of the "Bad Influence!"
saturday evenings with the muppet show, sunday mornings with fraggle rock
never being able to make those little paper mystic predictor thingies where you pick a number and a colour and then get told your fortune which some girl from class could always make in 2 seconds flat.
climbing too high and getting stuck, you get that sinking feeling when you know youve just gone too far..
never being able to see through hannibal's disguises and being amazed that the nun with stubble and a stogie was really him.
making yourself sick with chocolate at easter and your bloody sibling saving their eggs and tormenting you with them.
trying to dislodge a wobbly tooth with some string and a door handle, all that pain for 20p from the tooth fairy!
finding a dead cat on the way to school and having indepth discussions about it at break time.
wet breaks, the beno & fast foward magazine and being able to sit on the tables.
forgetting your PE kit and having to do gym in your pants and vest, thinking your going to die of shame.
the feeling when you finally are able to ride a bike with out someone holding on to the back of the saddle, how wobbly you feel then the wind rushing past your face, then the ground coming up to meet you.
swimming with out arm bamds for the first time, how naked you felt? kind of like an oven ready chicken.
being friends with someone and not being able to imagine not having them, being friends forever, wonder where they are now?
your best friend moving away, the sadness.
getting stung by a bee and showing the stinger to everyone to prove that yes it really was that big!
i bloody miss those times, but would i go back to being a kid if i had the choice?...... nah, things are always better when you look back on them.
hope these jogged a few momories for you and maybe made you smile, feel free to add some memories of your own :touch:
