Ninja Turtles, Star Wars, Television, what are these things, we had none of them when I was young we had to make our own entertainment. Depending what was in season we would go across the fields and pick incendary bombs or chase doodlebugs, V2’s or anything else that happened to fall out of the sky – it used to be a race between the local lads, the Policeman and the POW’s to see who could get there first to bag the best pieces. It is only now that I realise what the value of some of the junk would be today. We would also sneak into the local Italian POW camp, through holes in the fence, to play football or we would help them with hedging and ditching or bridge (small ones) building on the local farms. We had adventure but today’s kids are not allowed to do anything incase they hurt themselves. Oh Happy Days.
Thats enough of me waffling on – I’m young at heart though.:mad:
