ohhhh, lick lead soldiers, drink the paints that we use to paint them. play in mud..and we sometimes got it in our mouth!!
Bmx riding and falling off on the big jumps...without sueing the council because (god forbid) the ground was too hard!!
And we could play out in the dark on our own street without the fear of some pervert running off with us.
Running through thorn bushes........just because a mate dared us too.
....and it bloody hurt sometimes.
The first computer I had was a commodore 64, it took almost an hour to load a game up on the cassette player (yes kids..cassette! it was the future).....and sometimes it crashed just before it loaded, so you had to start all over again, then you'd get 5 mins play before bedtime came around.
Kids today don't know they were born!
