When we were kids, about 10 or 11-ish I guess, we saw 2 workmen spend all day taking up the pavement and digging a hole at the top of Victoria Park, Swinton. About 20 of us came back that night and filled it all in. Some older lads made the paving stones right and we cleaned it up beautifuly. The look on their faces the next day was priceless but as with all these things you had to be there.
More up to date, there used to be a joke shop at the top end of Lord Street, Fleetwood, that had a warning note saying 'Door sticks'. You would think the owner of a joke shop would have a sense of humour when I went in and asked for a door stick...
