Happy Birthday Trog.

Remember swinging so high, you pulled the leg of the swing frame out of the ground, just to scare the crap out of your mates sister

Nice! Was very cool to see them play with the Meanies for a reunion about 8 yrs ago

I'm glad I never grew up in tbe era of smartphones. I'd never get away with a lot of the stuff we did as kids with everything being posted on Facebook, Instagram etc 😆

Ha ha me too Loneranger...

I'm just glad there is no long lasting digital evidence of the mountain of stupid **** I did.

Just a few mates with long memories..... but I've got them covered.
