When I was a kid my brothers and I had just seen a pirate movie where some of the island dwellers walked on hot ashes. The kids in the neighbourhood knew that my mother always cleaned out the fireplace on a Tuesday. So we decided that the following Tuesday was the day to walk. All nine of us waited until she was back inside my older brother spread the ashes out away we went. Twenty minutes later there was two ambulances and two cars taking nine kids to hospital with burnt soles.
So what crazy antics did you do?

We made tunnels and forts in a gorse paddock. Does that count as crazy?

haha Koko that is funny....
Hmm thinking about this.....
The street at the back of us where we lived had its road dug up and huge pipes that a 7 year old could stand up in were being laid, the whole area was out of bounds but we, would jump down into the pit and run the length of the street in these pipes under the road!
to this day I think my god we could have been buried alive.
My brother jumped off the roof of our house thinking he was superman - he hurt his leg.

Nice Cookie - I remember my brothers doing the same.
This next antic is all me
When I was about eight I went to The Sound of Music all by myself - i.e. my mother brought my ticket and I sat in the theater alone. Now 100 years ago the movies were in two parts - at the end of the first session the lights went on and everyone left so I left and walked home. What a panic - my family was in running all round chc looking for me. I was the butt of a family joke for too long. I hated the Sound of Music for years considering I never actually saw it, (until 20 years ago). ;D
