I'm a bit younger than a few here but here's a couple off hand.
I remember taking the rubbish to the handy man in primary school to burn in the old incinerator, located about 30 feet from the main building to be burned.
Setting rabbit traps up behind the hospital and taking the rabbits into the old folks at the aged care (assisted living ) wing, no charge.
Swimming in the town water supply during the heat of summer, you could open the lid and swim in a big cool tank haha.
Getting taken home in the police car with my bicycle in the back a few times after a win at the local footy home game, sharing a ride with other players.
Taking the Yz80 up to the local service station riding along the footpath at a safe speed waving to the townspeople with no helmet and to fill up the old man's Jerry cans strapped to the back. The attendant let me pump and pay and rode home about 9km in 100kmh traffic zone. The only time you would be stopped is to talk to someone asking after your father or grandfather.
Sitting at the local gun club meet up for clay bird target practice, about 30 families would turn up and shoot clays day and night all weekend. The only injury I ever remember was one kid hitting another with a stick from time to time.
Duck hunting with the old man setting up hides and plucking ducks for about 3 days after then taking the Ducks to neighborhood and friends. I can remember 3 figure kills, and not one went uneaten.
Pulling out a drum net from the Edward River with a tractor, a friend of my uncles property, with the hugest cod I've ever seen. I wasnt even 10, but it was massive, I watched them release it, I have no idea if ones that size would even still exist. All the Metre plus cod I've seen since were dwarfed by this beast. I stopped swimming in that part of the river from that day, I remember thinking if it couldn't eat me it would definitely drown me.
My grandmother used to let me sort her coin collection and notes out when I went over which inspired me to start my own from my dad's wallet. I was maybe 6 or 7 and put the notes on my wardrobe which was nearly roof height. I had all denominations in multiples I'm guessing for about 2 years. He never asked if I'd taken it, anyway my mum found it eventually, and I came home from school. She asked why I had I and I told here I was collecting it. My Dad got home later and was in total disbelief. We all went on holidays for 2 weeks in the new car he brought, it was only then I realized just how much it was. I still remember being so sad my collection was gone.
