Gathering all the straw after the farmers had cut the corn fields, piling it all up in a big pile at the base of a pylon and playing chicken to see who dared climb the highest before jumping off onto the straw below.

I remember my mum used to take me to the launderette, then whilst we were waiting for clothes to dry, we'd go over the road to the cafe/bakers and I'd get a proper bacon barm for 50p then I'd slide under all the tables on my back trying to look up the women's skirts.
No money so ****. We'll find something to do.
If we needed money. Easy. Lets gan and nick some lead.
