‘Book, LOTS of books. Rode my bike, played hide and seek, swam in my pool, hung out my friends, played board games, wrote in my diary, played games on my Merlin, played card games, listened to music, recorded music off the radio and made mixed tapes, swam in lakes, the list goes on and on.’

‘As a 90s kid bro. We played outside all day. Basketball, soccer, kickball, street hockey, water guns, tag, you name it. THEN, at night we all came back and played ghosts in the graveyard/hide n seek. Last part was summer stuff.
But that’s basically it. We were very active. We also gamed for sure. Super Nintendo/Sega systems were around and when N64 and Playstation came out, it really ramped up. But it was a lot of sports for me and my friends.’
