My Seventies Stuff
Noddy, Big ears & Looby Lou... Paddington bear with Winnie the Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger, Piglet too Also Rabbit, Owl & Kanga-roo
Barbie with her boyfriend Ken, childrenâs books about Mr. Men
Sindy, Patch & a doll called Tressy with her belly button that youâd press to grow her hair in a tress
Home made bogies made of bits of Dadâs old wood with four little pram wheels that you would salvage if you could...a big orange ball called a Space Hopper that I bounced on everyday like a little bopper
Chopper bikes, roller skates if you didnât have either you would use your mates... Seventies toys when we were small weâd play outside & have a ball
Staying out until the dark, playing with your friends..having a lark... your Mother used to give you a shout & look for you if you werenât about
Memories of my childhood years when playing was fun without any fears, dirty hands & soily skinned knees from handmade swings with ropes on trees
Oh how I miss those bygone days of Oh so long ago... yet I will never forget the happiness I had with my friends I used to know

Yes I go back alot these days lol to those days haha so glad you enjoyed Cherie & thanks loads as ever ???
Jillpopper,Â
I agree with Cheerie! That is fantastic! It is so true, and wonderfully reminiscent of youth. Loved it!Â
I wasn't as lucky as you guys, though. You see, I grew up in a Chicken Emporium in Maxwell, North Dakota, and didn't have many toys. But we still made the best of it. I had a sock that I called Ernesto, and he would speak the loveliest Spanish...in German(he was bi-lingual), and we would listen to his stories of being inside of shoes, and lost in a dryer. It's was so fascinating, yet incredibly dull. We also had a piece of string called Stringy, and he adorn our heads as we pretended to be Amish mule tenders. It was so much fun, yet ridiculously mind-numbing. I miss those days, don't you? And the goats! Oh, those goats. Sometimes they would eat Stringy, and we would cry for days. Man, I miss him.Â
Anyway, thank you for bringing back those great, yet horrible memories! LOL.Â
Awesome write, my friend!!Â

Thanks Matthew haha@ âAmish mule tendersâ n string you paint such a vivid picture in my head teehee ???
Jill,Â
In all honesty, thank you for not thinking I'm crazy.Â
And I'm so glad you enjoyed the revelations of my odd childhood. I did have SOME good times, like the time I fell into an iron smelting hole, and my mom fashioned me into the Tin Man for my Halloween costume(unfortunately, it was in January, so I had to wear it for 10 months, but it was a big hit at the Town Halloween Party, even though I wasn't invited. Another time a ferret bit me on the bum when I was using his cage as a settee. It hurt, but it was still a memory.Â
You're loopy, young lady.Â

Lmao@ Matthewâs Brilliant imagination u r a genius wordsmith my friend ?âď¸?
Thank you Jill! I'm sorry if I'm a little warped. As a youngster I was left out in the rain, and I became such. I'm so glad I can be crazy with such wonderful people as you, and Cheerie, and Lodi, and Red, and Marion, though!Â
Thank you!Â
Matthew.Â
