    Reading James talk about his Meccanno set brought back childhood memories of my brothers playing with theirs.

    What was your favourite toy when you were younger? Have you or your parents kept it?

    I loved playing with marbles. Having 2 older brothers I joined in with their games more than playing my own…used to love looking into the marbles at the shapes and colours. :lol:

    My collection of toy cars…my favourites were the chitty-chitty-bang-bang cos its wings came out and it had little people sitting in the seats, my batmobile, and the herbie car with the steering wheel on the top so you could change the direction of the front wheels.

    Always remember my driving instructor’s face when he produced a herbie car to show me the principles behind a 3-point turn and I went off on a nostalgia trip! :lol:

    My favourite childhood, Kenty ? That’s a very short list………

    But seriously.

    I loved to line up my collection of severed barbie doll heads, and then rant dialectical Leninism at them while me mum weren’t looking. The masses need education and those vacantly staring plastic beauties weren’t getting away with their incessant chat about Ken.

    I never liked that Mr Livingstone anyway.We’d break off for jammy sandwiches and lashings of ginger beer, before I stuffed them all in to the Kerplunk machine.
    Aye, ’twas revolutionary times…….

    Then I rode off into the sunset on my Buckeroo Donkey, but fell off for some reason.
