Re: Owd Pastimes
Don't know about you ANNE, but it can be a bit intimidating someimes walking to the corner shop, and kids are sitting around in gangs, often with nothing better to do than make remarks to passers by.
It seems a lot of the good kids don't want to be playing around outside these days, because of the potential for trouble. Also because of people thinking they are going to make trouble. Know one guy round here, as soon as kids set foot out of the door, it's "you've done this - you've done that"
They seem to tar all of them with the same brush and It just ain't fair! Or maybe I've got my cynical head on too!
We need more organised stuff for the kids these days. I know we didn't have it in our day, but it's a different world now.
