    So find me someone who didn't sniff some glue/tippex/marker pen!

    I. Sure we've all done it out of curiosity.
    just passing through.... Nothing to see....

    That's a different poster, not the OP

    I know. Post deleted, but not quickly enough.
    If you fold it in half, will an Audi A4 fit in a Citroen C5? :)

    You could eat crayolas as well, strangely laxative effect (probably the wax) but worth it for rainbow poo :o
    (I only did it once I add)

    I preferred the Gloy Gum, and not the paste - Oh, the satisfaction of peeling the dried glue off the glue-spreaders... memories... :D

    Never tried the crayons though (was always better at gluing than drawing...)

    I remember using the gloy gum on my new [Dad had just assembled it] chest of drawers to make small blobs to peel off. How much trouble did I get into! :o

    Did you sew the tips of your fingers together in Home Ec as well? I did, used to freak out my best friend so I did it all more :)

    There was some satisfaction in peeling the glue I agree, the closest I can get now is picking up a costa card etc and pulling it off the paper, the bit of glue left is just there to be peeled :o

    I discovered that by angling a Tipp-ex pen correctly, you could create little blobs that if you left for a minute would form a skin and could then be popped like a zit.

    I did! I did!! :T

    Immensely satisfying. I'd forgotten all about it until earlier today! Ah, the glory days of a mis-spent youth... :o

    Not as much trouble as I got into for putting stuff onto my dad's antique veneered piano, I'll bet! The mark is still there, 25 years later, hehe!

    A good few years ago my school bought pink stick glue, like Pritt sticks but a different make. The smell was like marzipan and it was all we could do to stop our children from eating them. Might not have done them any harm but I doubt if it would have done them any good, for sure. We stopped buying them.
