Stilldrillin:
We had "battles" by throwing stones at each other.
Turned a table upside down..... It was a pirate ship......
Made dens in the woods. Stayed all night, sometimes.......

done all that although we used to sledge down a very steep field with a railway cutting at the bottom , we never had a problem with that but one lad did hit a tree , broke his neck :( shocked us all . per rants banned use from sledging but as you all know that lasted about 5 hours
the most dangerous thing we did was to upend a metal dustbin fill with town gas and light it round the lid when over the science lab roof like a moon rocket flames as well
still alive just

We used to spend hours playing around disused mine sites
Throwing bangers down the open shafts
Making swings with un tested rope in un tested trees without a SWL on the branch
It was called having fun :D :D :D :D
The metal work teacher used to let us in to the shop at dinner times to use the machines
I remember nicking some magnisium ribbon from the science lab and burning it with out any PPE :) :) :) :)
Happy days late 50s
