Re: WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
Had to go to the shop and buy 10 number six tipped for my mum. Used to buy a white mouse with the penny change sometimes and got killed off my mum for not bringing it home. It was only a penny for goodness sake!

Re: WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
Yuck!!!
I recently found a nest of 5 baby grey tits and had to cut up worms and place them in their throats every two hours for 2 weeks to keep them alive and make them grow strong. That was bad enough!! I'll stick to the spaghetti here in Italy, that's as near as I'll ever get to eating worms! |

Baby sit my kid Bro and Sister. Nearly killed him once. Coz I let him fall out of his pram and he went rolling down a place called plum pudding hill on the way to bluebell woods.

Re: WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
Wear a liberty bodice and a knitted vest, (welsh wool of course) I was boiling hot and itching all day long, but mum said I wouldnt get a cold like all the other girls.
I was the only one in my class, I hated the days we went swimming and all the girls laughed at me, |

Re: WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
Eat spaghetti.Never liked the stuff.Sorry Jo.Stupid thing is though i do not mind pasta.One of the worst things as a child was having to drag my younger brother around with me all the time during the summer school holidays.Then he would spend all evening teling my parents what we got up to.anybody else suffer like that when they were younger?

Re: WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
Oh, yes but with me it was my kid sister. She never dare grass me up to Mum and Dad though.
I used to hate having her tag along. Big embarrassment. :-[ |

Re: WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
True Anne, especially when i still had to do it at the age of 14.That is when it really got embarrassing.Was hard to meet up with anybody when you have somebody 4 years younger tagging along with you like a shadow

Re: WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
Also had to go to the launderette, didn't enjoy it but found by spinning the clothes twice always had some spare 20p's for the sweet shop! Also hated having to go to bed before my older sister.

Re: WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
At least you didn't have to go to bed with your older sister Grego..
