COLINSRI Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 I had a 'gatgun' which got used to destruction. My first penknife had a fork and spoon on it, felt just like 'John Rambo' with my knife and gatgun.....I was unstopable. Found a longbow (not the rifle) which my mum handed into the police but got it back because nobody claimed it. Never put any proper bow string on it but used all manner of wire, sea fishing line, string etc etc. Thats was great fun. As I got older I got my first 'Grifter' bike which i washed all the time. It had gears....three of them... ****. Then as technology took over I had all manners of little pocket computer games such as donkey kong et al. Then when I was 14 I discovered females. Now I'm just another good man ruined by a women.....ah that old fable...but where would we be without them ay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Top man ronttuk, we lived in the middle of nowhere in Somerset, but still managed to have skateboards. We made our own ramps and stuff and I've also still got the scars to prove it! On the other hand, I loved Meccano and spent hours making stuff. God knows what happened, my brother couldn't stand the stuff and ended up being a mechanic, I loved it and ended up being something else P.
