hey partyguy420 I hear you. back in the seventies I come from a small Island malta .man the summers were great we used to meet at hang out day & night with out any worries about anything life was just a breeze if you wanted to swim you walked to the sea and have a swim if you wanted a siesta you had one .
play hide in seek in public gardens at night, when they were closed.
but a few crates of beer and go to some old fort have a few smokes and hang around trying to see what its was lie a few hundred years back.
the streets were safe it since it is a small Iland nearly everyone new everyone.
Today I have two beutifull kids two boys its not the same for them if they play out I find myself constantly looking out for them.
