My daughter winded herself recently. She was really very scared, I think. (She’s only 4 after all.)

Snuck into an abandoned factory somewhere in Nottingham with friends when I was 13/14. For some reason there were rolls and rolls of brightly coloured stickers everywhere so we ran around trying to stick them on each other while not falling over bits of old stuff. Fun afternoon.

I’ve done that as well (got to France and back to the UK without a passport). Surprisingly easy, this was over 10 years ago though.

The temptation to remove the / from the title is very strong, you know?

love the bit right at the end where garth holds it up in the face of that oblivious dude

Got into a festival near where I grew up (stand on electricity box, elegantly fall over fence) with one of my teenage dogs. We were fine until we went to leave so we could sleep in the nearby barn, some security lads collared us and marched us off the site, insulting us the whole way, then we hitchhiked back to town in the miserable drizzly small hours.

I was with some family going on a ferry in a car. Wasn’t even asked any questions.

^ trying to sneak a non-sneaking anecdote into the sneaking thread!!!

I once managed to pull myself a pint in an empty upstairs function room of a pub. I just wandered in there on my way to the loo, pulled myself a peroni (most ££ beer on tap… it was a fairly shite pub) and left. I didn’t tell any of the group I was with what had happened, just basked in the smug free pint glow.

Now, did you also source a glass from the upstairs function room or had you, inexplicably, taken a glass with you to the toilet?

glass from the function room! pulled the peroni into a stella glass in my adrenalised confusion

I would not be able to not tell people about this. What an accomplishment.

Did a bit of this shit at university, easiest way to get on the roof was just go out of the modern fire escapes from the top floors / my mate’s windows, so it wasn’t all that dramatic. Got very close to being caught a few times though, which got the heart racing:

Those old school lads were insane though.

Did something similar at [redacted university], except underground. A few of us went exploring in the heating system passageways one night. One guy had been down there before so knew which manhole to go down, then we went pootling around the tunnels for a bit and popped up somewhere near the union bar.

yeah, did the same thing with a few mates years ago, but we just ended up getting blazed on the playing field.

I think it’s time for (another) rewatch.
