How well I remember our primary school days and after-school adventures on our way home - the school fights, fruit-picking, dog- slingo-ing . My brothers were angels compared to some of the 'characters' we encountered, who always wanted to pick a fight! Those other boys were bad like yars!.
I remember the drevaying on weekends and the licks that followed the disobedience to not go river-lyming. My brothers came home looking white almost chalky as if they had bathed with blue soap! They got licks every day and went back every day! They got seasoned to licks after a while. My poor mother probably did not realize they may have been faking the bawling - tricky fellas they were!
