Re: Childish Things

Ooh yeah Carol
I love a swing too
And I haven't got the grandkids excuse yet!!

Re: Childish Things

Oh yes, I'd have a bit of that too

BTW, anyone know if it's still allowed to chalk in hopscotch on pavements? I hope to gawd councils haven't banned it

Re: Childish Things

I think chalk is fine Pesta cos it washes off
But I suppose you'd have to be considerate of others when you chose your spot

Re: Childish Things

Not in this weather

Re: Childish Things

I use a Hula Hoop and also play Jacks.

Sometimes we get my Husband's Scalelectric out and set it up in the lounge and Coco sits in the middle trying to catch the cars going round.

8 years ago I was working in a private School as the Playground Supervisor and I used to play Rugby with the 11 year old boys who crushed me to death and Netball with the Girls.

Re: Childish Things

all the time, I use my 9 year great niece as a reason I can act childish. She thinks I'm bonkers but it brings a huge smile upon her face so, mission accomplished

Re: Childish Things

I have a yearning to jump in a puddle in yellow wellies, just as I used to as a child. Knowing my luck though, I would probably end up like Dawn French did in the Vicar of Dibley!

Re: Childish Things

hahaha, do it, made me chuckle

Re: Childish Things

I too have Jacks and Im still as quick as I was as a child

I go to play parks and have a swing now and then

I have a hoola hoop

I skip

I paddle in the sea and eat ice-cream before dinner

I sit and make daisy chains and fish for frog spawn

I love nothing better then piling as many cars I can on the scalextric and crashing them all

I teach the grandkids all the rude nursery rhymes

We soak each other when we have the hose pipe out on Sumer evenings, we buy water bombs and go mad

50's going on 5 here

Re: Childish Things

Sometimes, when I can't get my own way, I hold my breath.
