(In reply to the question of the thread title)

Yes, i am getting old. I've aged about 10 years in the last 6 months :wacko:

i dont think kiddy fiddlers were rare, they just werent considered good tabloid fodder so nobody cared that much.


i think my earliest memory was getting a ferrarri f40 for my 4th birthday, then my mate nicked it :angry:

You are old when the 'Last War' you talked about as a kid was the 1914-1918 war. :lol: :lol:

P.S. Kiddie-fiddlers have always been around. They used to be called Mr 'X' in the News Of The World.

Nice to see you here again boab, :) I'm not sure how many other of the fun people are still here. Does cheese still visit?

Good post Zero dude, and thanks for that :frusty:

I get told I'm old everyday :lol:

What gets me is kids standing outside work smoking and on the phone about bad things they done.........and they HALF my age :crying:

Jonno :cool:

:( Aww Crap!

I remember watching

The WhirleyBirds
Fireball XL5
Dr. Who (first one) from behind the sofa.
Wanting to be Ilya Kuryakin

Building a boat out of lemonade crates and watching my sister sink (as she was chief test pilot)
Running for my life from my mum for getting my sister wet.
Realising that copying the answers from the back of the Modern Mathematics book was a bad idea as I achieved 100% without any workings
(Teachers were allowed to be really cruel back then :ph34r: )


Looking at the world through eyes of wonder.
:01:

Some of that stuff applies to me,

And I'm only 23. :(

I remember it all....I am old and growing older disgracefully....

Also...

Space 1999
fingerbobs
playschool (little ted, big ted, hamble and humpty)
Pipkins (good ole Hartley hare)
Opportunity Knocks
Starsky and Hutch


curleywurleys were huge!
first taste of Space Dust

getting a top loading video player was the big event.

Bay city rollers
Donny Osmond
Slade
Mud
Showaddywaddy

The death of Bon Scott


no speed cameras
no cctv


I could go on.........but too many to mention

I can remember when I got high from Parma Violets.
Those were the days.


I bought myself a Dip-Dab the other day.
Was tempted to snort the sherbet, one last time. :shifty:
