The late 90's for me.

Being in junior school (loved it!), Summer nights on the park with literally the whole village kids playing rounders, tag etc. Just everyone getting along, having a laugh. Knowing that when the street lights turned on you needed to get your ass home!

Going to the corner shop and getting a "50p mixture" and coming out with a huge bag of sweets. Pokémon cards! Everyone being hooked on WWF wrestling and having playfight matches on the schoolyard (until it got banned because someone sprained an ankle!!)

Good music, video games (everyone loving PS1!), movies... no stresses just fun.

Junior school when the most exciting thing in your life was a kid falling over in the playground and cutting his leg and going home and talking about it as though you just witnessed a murder. Along with all the rumours like "Did you see his knee cap hanging off????? The bone was poking out of his LEG!!!!"

So true!! A slight cut would be "there was blood EVERYWHERE!!!" hahah

Speaking of injuries, another thing I miss is health and safety being much more relaxed in a weird way!

Our park became basically derelict and the roundabout was just the steel bars without the wood on it. We used to go as fast as we could on it just standing on the thin steel bars... if we fell off we would have snapped our legs without a doubt! We didn't think about that

I know, right? Our local park has all that soft foam stuff on the ground now.

Terrible! A bit of bruising never hurt anyone!

I remember the thick soggy bark chips we used to have on some parks, that stuff would splinter into you like crazy!

Oh yeah baby. Back when I used to love reading mills and boons as I waited for the radio to play the song I was waiting for so I could finish my mixtapes. I loved the struggle.
