  This must be my favourite forum
  
  It really brings back loads and loads of memory.. but while reading all the posts, I just realise some of you are actually younger than myself..
  
  Anyway, Choose Your Own Adventures - that's my favourite series, but too bad.. Was too poor to be able to afford all the books in the series and could only buy a few where the titles seem to be of greatest interest to me back then.. Wish I still have them.. Then there's Enid Blyton books, Secret Seven (my favourite), then there are Famous Five, Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys (which I somehow didn't really like).
  
  Games - Catching, Dock-Kar, Zero-Point, Police & Thief, Poison Ball, Five Stones, Four Stones.. Cool.. Oh.. and playing with "go-lees marbles was the in-thing back then, before school, during recess, and after school sometimes.. but as I always lose in such games and would lose all my marbles so I would never play. I knew for sure that my mother will cane me like nobody's business if I waste money buying marbles only to lose them after that..
  
  Then there's the chocolate, strawberry, and the occasional bonuses of banana-flavoured milk every alternate day.. I remember I always bring home those 'white milk' because I would puke at the slightest taste of it..
  
  Classic cartoons then.. Smurfs on Sunday mornings, then there are Alvin and the Chipmunks, Gummi Bears on Thursday evenings after school, then there's Transformers which I hardly understand... then there's M.A.S.K - my favourite (am glad I still have my Raven, Piranha, and that purple vehicle driven by Vanessa Warfield. I wonder why I lost my Jackhammer, Switchblade, ThunderHawk, Rhino which was really expensive back then..)
  
  I really like how some of you vividly describe those toothbrushing sessions after recess.. the squatings along the drains.. where we go "One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six..." in muffled voices.. Ha ha... And I remember always winning when I compete with my friends to see who can shoot water furthest (one of the very few victories I could achieve).
  
  Right.. that's all for now..
