On that theme, but much smaller, the rolls of caps you could get for your toy pistol. They fitted into little pressed plastic holders that then went into the toy gun. I remember unwrapping a fresh roll and the smell was wonderful. They made a great line of 'fuse' fire like the beginning of Mission Impossible. Happy happy days.

Not so much fun when you have loads of them in a pencil case in your pocket for a large staged cap gun fight after school on a hot day and the whole fking lot decides to spontaneously ignite. Obviously, when a reaction like this occurs it produces a lot of energy in the form of sound and, most noticeably, intense heat. Intense heat which, in the short period of time it took for the reaction to stop, melts the pencil case to itself but also melts the pencil case, the plasticy school trousers and the plasticy school trousers' pocket to my fking leg.Being a right hard nut (and mortally terrified of the ridicule one was to face if people had discovered I had melted my trousers to my leg with caps) I ripped it off and carried on for the rest of the day with a jagged, sharp pocket and burns on my legs. And substantially less caps than I had on me when I got to school.
Is it just me or does this thread seem a little bit like a B3ta QOTW?
ETA: I forgot the sound. The sound that can only be described (I shall never forget it, ever) the most unholy fart I have ever heard. You know the whole clown shoes running over a bath of jelly or whatever it was? Imagine that but layered 50 times and played with a slight delay on each one. And turn it up to 11. THAT LOUD! May have been helped by the fact that the explosion/reaction was completely unprovoked and I may have attempted to evacuate my bowels

I asked to go in the cock pit of 747 in 1996. I was 26yo.
It was ace! The pilots were only to happy to show me their knobs and help me stuff the air stewardess thought I was a bit retarded in asking.
No chance now.

If you can't get your cock out in front of all the year...
You've just reminded me of a kid at primary school called Mark Holloway. He was, shall we say, a bit 'simple', and very easily led.We girls would egg him on to expose himself to a particular elderly female dinner supervisor, who would shriek with horror, while we all fell about laughing.
I do wonder where he is now - locked away somewhere no doubt.
