I think that life style as kids was mirrored by most lads in the 60`s and 70`s

You can include the 80s in that mate, pretty much all Cragman mentioned was the mainstay of our f***ing about outside all day until dark...

This thread just reminded me, was going to buy the book a few months ago, after someone mentioned it on here.

Not read the book, nor seen the film, apart from a few short clips here and there.

Certainly does seem a bit of a classic, both book and film.  Will get it ordered in morning.

Remember the old man taking me to see it when it first came out and I have it on dvd and watched it with my eldest grandson when he was doing a kestrel for a knave in English at secondary school. It's definitely an iconic british film that must rank as one of the best ever made. I sometimes find it surprising when I have mentioned the film to younger lads most who were not from Yorkshire who have never seen the film.
