major things in the early 80s were,
BMX,
breaking,
graffiti (not taggin though)
finding the highest bridges, trees or ledges to jump off into rivers :crazy: if i caught my kids doing some of the stupid stuff we did, i would have something to say, i remember doing a backward somersault off a bridge in town into the canal for 70p :eek:
playing a game called robin hood, which i hated with a passion, involved about 30 young men going up the woods, all gathering long sticks, and battering and whipping the sheet out of each other :cry: whoever inveted that game needed help.
town tig :D more like fun to me
then around 87 we found fungus on the moors and it all went crazy :thumbsup:
