LOL

great thread .. again

climbing trees without worrying about clothes!
wearing your mums nighties as dresses and thinking that her sexy neglige was a great dress
learning to spin whilst your grandma undid all the mistakes and patiently explained AGAIN about snapped wool being held too tight.
Going blackberry picking with mummy and both of us jumping in the mud with the animals.
Making jam and pies when we got in. Learning how to bottle and preserve stuff.
having your hair tied back in a french plait every day.
having to not only wear a school shirt but also a tunic, boater hat, jumper, blazer, scarf, socks, shoes, knickers, vest and tie......from the age of 2 1/2
being sent home for using boater hat as frisbee.
trying to explain to mummy that boater had looked alot better flat than tradionally hat shaped.
A day in the back garden would mean a day of explorers, mountain rescue incidents, amazon tribesmen and dens.

ah... memories..
