Are you sure you weren't getting drunk GM

Drunk, we were only 8/9yrs old mate. Violently ill definitely it was a BIG mistake to combine all those things together but as a kid you think you know better-Boy, were we wrong and we paid for it.

I set fire to a skip/dumpster when I was at school

I thought It would be a small blaze. WRONG! There was paint and other fire lovers in there. It got so big the fire brigade had to be called because it was going to set fire to the school.
I was never caught because of omerta

but I still feel a bit guilty to this day. I was 14 and had hormone problems

Nothing wrong with a few beers at 9yo GM

I can remember a time when i was helping my dad dig the vegetable patch and i rammed the fork into the ground only for my foot to get in the way.
The fork went through my boot and into my foot. Learned a very good lesson that day, always check your feet aren't in the way.

Only if you like beer BB and no one in my family drank that stuff.
Actually I've just remembered another stupid thing I did. I wanted to practice lighting a fire and cooking outdoors, so I built a special holder of bricks(In those days there was a ditch at the back of the garden) and laid a wire mesh on top and began to poach some eggs. I put the eggs into the poacher holders and heated them up. Unfortunately, I had forgotten to put water in the bottom of the pan first and managed to completely ruin the plastic poachers by melting them. The eggs were ruined, the pan was ruined and the poachers burnt and twisted up. My mum wasn't too happy about that but she didn't tell me off because really anyone could have done it. I did feel rather silly.

When I was about seven, my parents had new kitchen units that Dad fitted himself. The old ones were in good nick so he put them in the garage pending sale.

That was until I came along and nailed all the doors shut...

Just a reminder Sweaty in case you forget to mention this little escapade!

I started smoking aged 15 just because I saw the Beatles smoking - what a stupid f*ucking prick!

Back in 1972 when I was 19 years old I once borrowed my father's car for a date because my car was on the fritz. My father owned a 1967 Gold Chrysler Newport with black interior which he kept immaculate and it was his pride and joy!

It was raining that night and after taking my date out to a movie and then for a quick bite to eat we naturally went parking afterwards ... for a little dessert!

After going a round and doing the old in and out in the back seat I needed to drain the vein (take a pee). Because it had been raining I put my shoes on and got out and took a pee. When I got back in the car, and before I had a chance to remove my shoes, my date grabbed a hold of me for round two and a little more dessert!

The next morning I come out of my house and I see my father standing by his car. He simply said to me, "Hey boy" and waved his index finger for me to go over there. When I got to his car he says to me, "Had a good time last last I see!" When I looked into his car I saw that there was mud everywhere -- on the floor, on the side panels, on the ceiling, on the inside windows!
I looked at my father and tried to speak and I sounded like Jackie Gleason on The Honeymooners ... Humm-in-ah, humm-in-ah, humm-in-ah!

Then I was finally able to muster up the words, "Yeah, not bad!"

Surprisingly, he was not too angry with me for mussing up his pride and joy! But, lesson learned -- Remember to take your shoes off when getting back into the car after taking a piss on a rainy night when going parking on a date!
