    all these things we did as kids died when our generation got older, ya just don,t see kids out playing or doin the things we used to do!!! the reason being parents are too afraid incase little jimmy gets nicked by a peadophile or is knocked down!!!!!

    You'd probably make a fortune with a knockadolly app for the iPhone.

    Knockadolly was some craic :pac:. Never was a big fan of kerbs but have played it many times.
    Another thing we used to do about once a year was when somebody in the neighborhood would build a wooden ramp and every kid in the area would gather around with their bikes ramping over it haha. Busted myself a few times. Like 40 of us would gather around of all ages.

    edit: and while im feeling nostalgic, I miss the blue double decker buses :(

    what about the one where two people stand either side of the road when traffic is approaching and pretend to be holding a rope!!! funny to think of the amount of cars that used to stop!! happy days indeed

    "Mob Johnny behind the wall in Carol's house." "You never said which wall!"

    You had to be very accurate with your mobbing. And your timing to mob all out had to be impeccable.

    Simpler times!

    grand national was my favourite-dunno if it was exclusive to the hillview area but it was basically a race from top of the street to the bottom running through neighbours front gardens,leaping over hedges and walls.
    some of those hedges were fair thorny too and i reckon i owe half my scars to that game! never forget the times smiley would play- he wasn't too good at jumping so you could practically see his body shape left in all the hedges! good times

    used to play a game years ago called manhunt , kinda like hide and seek but the end result is you get the ****e kicked outta ya when they find ya , so it was in your best interest to find a bloody good spot to hide !!

    That be hard. 4 year olds don't bounce very well

    Ever play the Manhunt Drinking Game?

    Whoever has to go looking for everyone must be drinking the entire time. When you are found you must follow whoever is 'it' and drink along with them until the last person is found.

    Tbh you can probably only get two rounds most out of it before people get too lazy to look and go back inside.....
