Stannergate with a bucket for wilks, plundering apples and pears, the wee pool at the sweeming, hired trunks, fishing for floonders at the docks, sky larks singing on the law, chicky nelly, doos eggs at the hoose o doos, climbing the three waas, Blaikies and the forest for birds eggs, the green hills sliding in the winter. The Plaza, Vic, Rex, minors of the ABC, kissy catchie, Jonny and the gun, kick the can.</p> Forebank 1950's Childhood Cinema / Theatre Games Tommy Purvey Wed, 23 Mar 2011 09:21:37 +0000 lynne.davidson 748 at http://bygone.dundeecity.gov.uk
