[Closed] Silly childish things that still get you excited now?

Kicking piles of leaves

Stomping through puddles in my big boots

and riding bikes in the woods wi my mates.

Mountain biking.

All of the above plus I give you.....

Collecting conkers

playing out. 8)

Skimming stones

poking dead animals with a stick

edit- before you all think im some sort of psycho i, um, well, can't really justify it, i dont kill the animals though, n it doesn't happen that often.

And going through car washes still excites me (although tinged with the slight worry of my paintwork being scratched so that does take the gloss of the experience a bit).
