If you were raised on Rainbow, Blue Peter, and you played in the woods, fell out of trees and went home filthy and got a thick ear, had 4 TV channels & school started with the Lords prayer, had to be in at 7, rode home made go-karts with pram wheels, recorded the top 40 from the radio on a tape,… drank from the tap, rode your BMX or Grifter all day, went to the corner shop for a 10p mix up and you still turned out ok, then re-post This is WHEN ENGLAND WAS GREAT :)

    MY THOUGHTS ON THE YOUNG OF TODAY AND THE YOUNG OF THE PAST
    by Deano Hollett on Wednesday, 17 August 2011 at 18:28
    those were the good old days
    when you could go out and play
    no gangs or yobs to deter you
    or to get in your way
    to play meant riding your bike, going to the shops for penny sweets
    going to the park, climbing trees and having innocent friends to meet
    having to be in by seven and to bed by eight
    to us that was the norm and certainly not too late
    compare that to some of the youth of today
    they dont go out to 'play'
    graffiti, smashing windows and the recent riots have prooved this
    they cause such affray
    and by no means do i include all of the youth
    because the majority go about their way
    playing harmlessly like kids should do
    after school each and every day
    but the minority make britain look bad
    for which this is so sad
    what happened to the innocence of our young?
    being content by playing and just having childish fun?
    do we blame the parents? the politicians or the peers?
    there must be an answer but to me its just so unclear
    the politicians will blame each other until their blue in the face
    and its not just confined to just a single race
    parents need to know where their kids are at night
    and not just sit back and presume theyre alright
    im not saying theye all to blame
    but kids as young as 11 shouldnt be out late, any excuse is too lame
    britain has definitely lost its 'great' to me
    when it comes back we will have to wait and see
    please please please know where your children are and make sure theyre in at a sensible time according to their age
    we dont want a repeat of the recent attrocities which caused so much rage
    we need to have a curfew set out based on childrens age
    then and only then can we start to rebuild 'broken britain'
    and give us pride once again.
    pride for being british, and no more being ashamed
    this time next year the world will be watching us
    for 2012 olympics.
    if its not already too late,
    lets prove to them we are worthy hosts
    by rebuilding broken britain and showing them we can do it by this we will be able to boast
    NO MORE ATTROCITIES PLEASE OTHERWISE WE WILL SURELY LET DOWN
    THE WORLD THAT WILL BE WATCHING PUTTING THE BLAME ON LONDON TOWN
