Remember making mud pies? Kevin Banister shared some memories; "Growing up as a kid in the late 50’s, early 60’s, breakfast was porridge, Vegemite on toast or Weet Bix. Warm milk in a small bottle at school and ordered your lunch from the 'tuck' shop written on a brown paper bag with your name and class and money enclosed. (St. Josephs, Rozelle). Rode your bike or scooter on the street without a helmet. Played street cricket where the light/telegraph pole was the wicket and hitting the ball onto a roof was 6 and out. When the street lights came on it was time to go home.
Played in the rain and mud and made mud pies in your back yard or down at the park. Where playing ‘on line’ meant swinging on the Hills Hoist using it as a merry-go-round. Played on the slippery dip, swings, merry-go-round, monkey bars at the park and came back with some bumps, bruises and cuts and mum would kiss it better and b**g on a band aid."
