Readers Respond: What is your favourite childhood memory with your siblings?

Sometimes we love them, other times we hate them.

And that is the nature of siblings whether we like it or not. No matter how old we are. Some things will never change.

But remember, they will always be there for you. 

So we wanted to ask our readers what their favourite childhood memory with their siblings is. 

Check out some of your responses below. 

Beppie Snackers - No one is gonna believe this but for me it was doing the dishes, singing and making music, having all sorts of conversation and doing crazy stuff ie putting a cup of water on the top of the door knowing someone could step in and get all wet

Cheryl Clark - Being with them! Best ever times, no matter what.

Grace Boland - Playing with all our beautiful dolls - also playing shops!

Dawn Dominick - Playing in the street out the front of our house with all the neighbourhood kids and my siblings... billy cart races, cricket, football, knocking on neighbors doors then running off to hide and so much more.

Elaine Jay - Mine is with my younger brother who is no longer with us. We were lying in bed one night trying to go to sleep but we were both making up jokes. I told one and we’d both laugh our heads off then he’d make one up and we’d both kill ourselves laughing, they weren’t even funny but we just laughed because they were stupid and the more we laughed the funnier it was, we had so many laughs together. Love and miss you Doug. xx

Janice Stewart - Bed time. Lots of stories and too much laughter. Often threatened with a smack if we didn’t go to sleep. Never happened as we giggled under our pillows to stifle the laughter. 

Rhonda Baker - Sitting in the back seat in dad’s old chevy on our way to Perth, took about 10 hours because the radiator kept overheating. The brakes made a hell of a noise which meant my sister and I would duck down and hide.

Sheila Taylor - Playing in the fields across the road and building a seesaw with a plank of wood and a metal drum…so much fun. Sledding on the same field in winter.

Jenny Jones - My big sister drew a number 2 on my doll's soft rubber face, in Biro Pen. It never came off. I cut her doll’s hair and pierced its ears in retaliation.

Elizabeth Ann Bailey - Making up plays and performing them. Cleaning the gutters of leaves at my Grandmas.
