Trading pokemon and football cards at school, until they got banned because people started fighting over them! Going out on my bike with mates and just biking off for hours and getting lost...

I'll get back to childhood stuff now
What were those coloured plastic lace/string things called that people made into keyrings and stuff
There was a technique to it...I can't remember the name of them at all!!!

I think you might be talking about Scoubis. I didn't know about them, saw them in France a couple of weeks ago and bought them for my 10 year old niece as a present. However, the teenage boys (16, 18 and 19) found them, opened them, and before I knew it keyrings, necklaces etc were being made! Still, it kept them quiet during the 4 hour drive to the port. Really, what's wrong with them!! And what am I supposed to say to my poor presentless niece!

Yes that's the things

Absolutey everyone had them and made all sorts of stuff lol
I could never do it though

I remember them, they were just coming in on the younger end of the school. Didn't they have like super rare Pikachu card?

 

Does anyone have a favourite school dinner food or pudding? I remember at my school, people use to fight over the skin on the custard!  :X

Never had school dinners, always used to be out the school gates and a walk into town to the local chippy instead.

At primary school, the older you got, the worse the food got, like chicken mince pie, ice cream scoop of grey potato and runner beans.... If you got in trouble though and had to stay inside with the teachers over lunch break, you had to go have your dinner 1st, that was more of a bonus than a punishment, as you got sausages, pizza, chips etc a fair few of us clocked on and always ended up doin silly things so we could have nice dinners... The teachers got bored of looking at us so often let us out to play anyways lol the scams u figure out at school.,, them were the days!

Ice cream scoop of potato, what was that about? Who ever thought of that idea!

 

I use to love the puddings, I remember once they did rainbow cake with icing on the top and when you put custard on it would melt the icing and it was goo heaven. Never saw it again though...:( I'm trying to remake cornflake tart though, that was nice!!

Apparently Texan bars went out of production in 2005...

 

I loved Catch the Pigeon, I had it as a ringtone once...unfortunately I had to stop using because every time someone rang me, I didn't pick up because I was too busy singing along to it..."Stop the pigeon, stop the pigeon HOWWWW!!" lol

Means everyone gets the same amount lol not that anyone really ate it! You had the option of when your finished, you could go back for seconds, i remember once this "slightly" overweight girl was in such a rush to get seconds, that she shovelled her dinner down, and as quick as it went down, it came back up everywhere, she was so upset, not that she'd just thrown up all over the table, but because she couldnt get seconds!!! Haha!
