My Dad and the innocence of youth

.................

Get home from school, get changed into footy gear, bike down to the park and play football until it was dark.

Sometimes I do long for the simplicity of that.

Also knocking for lads you didn't really like but you knew they had a decent ball.

When the ball goes over the top of the jumper/schoolbag/bike..

"That was post and in"

or even worse when it goes "bar and in" off the imaginary crossbar

i remember the first video we had with a remote control.... it was on a lead, used to lift it up every time my sister walked past to see how many times a week i could make her to face plant

going into the local video shop and asking if the had any posters.

had a life size cardboard cut out of rocky in my room for years because of video1

Staying up until midnight for the 10 min preview of Television X

Or someone tw@ts the car and everyone runs off

I miss having such disregard for personal property like my bike etc, skidding up to the kerb and throwing it down just to be able to play footy 5 seconds faster

If you got a new ball...."we can use my ball but not on the concrete"

There used to be this psycho who lived round our way, been inside for armed robberies and other such crimes, one day we were playing footie at the end of the street and he walked past with his greyhound, my mate booted the ball at goal but it ended up hitting his dog which got loose and ran off, he said he was going to kill him if he didn't get his dog back, my mate was $hitting it for the next few weeks, hardly ever came out the house

smoking anything that even remotely looked like a cigarette because you couldnt afford the real thing... normally those really long grass like things that where hollow but harder than grass and more like twigs

i know what i mean

Was thinking about that today. These days if my bike skips a gear it eats me up.

Sparrows where have they gone

scrumping for apples only to be told by some miserable old fecker to get off his fence as they were his apples.. before looking down and seeing hundreds on the floor

Yes, which reminds me, heading balls with some of the panels missing on a cold day - particularly nasty if you only glanced it

Focus points in your cigarette packet.
