31st August

I cant believe we are nearly into september and we havent had a summer yet!
The kids go back to school next week..Boo has a nursery place too so i will get a break from them both..I wont miss the constant argueing and fighting or the "Im bored" every five minutes.Kids today just dont know how to amuse themselves.In my day you got up had breakfast and went on an adventure, got into mischeif and had a full day outside.We didnt have mobile phones and our mums didnt have a clue where we were until it started to get dark and we would go home.Our typical days events would be scrummping apples , climbing trees without a safety net..lol.Building rafts to float down the river on..none of us could swim but that didnt matter..Climbing all over the woodyard and having old "chicken legs" chase us..were just a few activities that we took for granted.Our kids today just dont have the daring to do anything.They play computor games and venture as far as the neighbours house to play.
Society hasnt changed that much.We are more aware of pedophiles but they were around back then ...Our mothers warned us about certain people being weird in the street but we just steered clear of them or if we were in a devilish mood we would go torment them by banging on the doors and pelting them with eggs etc. Our Mothers would clan together if there was a known pervert about and make sure they didnt stay around long.I wont go into details about that but a group of angry mothers are not to be messed with.
