Things you did as a kid that annoyed your parents

Lando Griffin

Break the handle of the shovel then stick it together so it could stand against the wall and daddy would come in a mad hurry grab it and it break in two.
Himself and the missus went on holidays and left me in charge of the farm but I went to a music festival and the sheep took to the country losing five.
Asked to paint the house and because it was pebble dashed got the knapsack sprayer and sprayed the house saving hours but also covered the car in little specks of magnolia and the dog and the washing.
Constantly taking the lawnmower apart to see if I could reassemble it and every time failed miserably.
We laugh about it now, except the sheep one.
What did you do that annoyed your parents?

Once, while bored in a department store when I was 4-5 years old, I went to the section selling clocks and set the alarms on all of them to go off at the same time. Another time I was being dragged around a hardware store so I wandered off, found the mouse traps, and set a load of them on the floor just where peoples' feet would be while browsing.

There was also the usual stuff like ripping all my mother's magazines up, stuffing them in the bathroom sink upstairs, turning on the taps and legging it.

My sister was somewhat of a torment of a child with a real evil streak.

We were visiting my grandmothers house back in the mid 70's. Work was ongoing to put in bathroom and septic tank. We were playing round the hole that the digger had dug for the tank. 10x6 and about eight feet deep, it had filled with water.

My sister had the idea that I would hide in the bushes, she would scream that I fell in and when people were coming over she'd push in some clay for the effect. Well, it didn't seem as funny to everyone as she expected, and we were beaten within an inch of our lives. I'd say we were six and eight, I can only imagine the panic.

We were adults before she admitted it was all her idea

I am told I used to hum loudly to match the pitch and tone of the car engine of the car we were driving in. I dont recall it myself but apperently it can get annoying fast.
