Nice one Cybers

My sister got one of those.

Remember the other one which was like the giroscope using gold and silver thick threads.

Ok,not one from when I was a kid,but something I had wanted but never got.
ESCAPE FROM COLDITZ board game,was deemed to expensive at the time it came out.
A chance visit to a toy shop 6 years ago for a pressie for a neice,someone had brought it back out.Happened to mention to the missus that I had always wanted one for Christmas but never got and that one of my mates had it and we played for hours on end.
So on Christmas day,I was both surprised and delighted when the last pressie opened was the game.

Badminton and tennis rackets were great guitars.

Not at all... I grew up in the 80s - an era where they forgot how to play guitar
