General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

I used to love bommy neet and the lead up to it, with me pocket full of bangers, and do any of you remember 'Canon Bangers' and letting off rockets from a milk bottle.

Chuckin a lit 'jumping jack' over the wall into the girls play ground at Abram & Bryn Gates Primary School

Collecting for a Bommy

Raiding a Bommy

Guarding a Bommy

Burning down a Bommy

Making a guy from an owd pair of pants and a shirt sown together and stuffed with newspaper

Homemade Treacle Toffee

Shop made Treacle Toffee

Meat and Tatty Pie made in industrial quantities in the biggest dish in the house

What is left of all that now

1. Bommy Neet - all but gone

2. Bangers - banned

3. Rockets - it tends to be those mortar things now

4. Milk bottles - I presume they have gone, not seen one for years

5. Jumping Jacks - Banned along with Catherine Wheels

6. Segregated Playgrounds - Have they gone too?

Yoo can see that I had a posh upbringing
