"Most of my childhood memories of safety issues revolve around cars and they fill me with horror just think of the consequences had anything gone wrong. Dad played cricket at the weekend for a local team, all traffic police except dad and one guy who was a nurse. After the match they would all go to the pub and drink several pints before going home, the heaviest drinkers were the police officers! I have one memory of being in a friend of the family’s estate car. Driver, 4 adult passengers all with a child on their lap and 4 more kids in the boot. Not a seatbelt among us! The final one I remember was going the the local working men’s club for dad to play snooker. Coming home my sisters were asleep in the back seat and I sat on dad’s knee helping him steer as he drove home!" I think that was pretty standard behaviour We used to go to team sports events in the back of a van about 15 of us, no seats no seatbelt sand for a laugh we'd try to stand up for the corners and braking etc. Happy memories though | |||

"Health and safety.....butting their noses in...saving bloody lives. Boring fuckers eh ![]() The point is it didn't exist back when this thread is talking about and surprisingly 99% of us are still alive and enjoying reminiscing about the good old days and the fun we had. I just knew someone would join a feel good retro reminiscing thread and try to spoil it Congratulations ![]() | |||

"Health and safety.....butting their noses in...saving bloody lives. Boring fuckers eh ![]() ![]() How has it spoilt of....lighten up for god's sake lol I'm just pointing out that you can't blame actual health and safety because that's not what it's for. Also, most of what's been posted is fuck all to do with health and safety. It's not against health and safety not to leave your kids in a car while you're in the pub for example ![]() | |||

"Swinging as high as you could, trying to go all the way over. And if you couldn't get all the way over (I never could) jumping off at the highest point." And seeing which kid could jump the furthest away from the swing. Remember those gondola type swings where you'd sit opposite someone and alternately pull down on a rope They nearly went vertical ![]() | |||

"Playing kerby " Jesus... My first memory of this was at my cousins place, was out in the road with the kids of the estate they live on... My cousins mates only went and picked up a massive concrete boulder to play the game with... Needless to say I stood there scared and moved to get behind my cousin... My auntie still lives in the same house and even now when I see that stretch of kerb I shudder! | |||

"Climbing trees making dens from bits of wood laying around always had cuts bruises and splinters" Great way to grow up and how it should be. Now it's all social media and trying to look like adult women when they should be enjoying a missed childhood. Only imo of course | |||

Definitely wouldn't be allowed now for so many reasons. Good times though and that teacher was a legend. | |||
