What's behind today's window... Awk just a wee trip down memory lane

What was your favourite Christmas present you ever received?

Be it from family, friends or Santa himself!

It may be cliché but I'd have to say my very first, 'big boy' bike would be mine. I was never off it when I was younger! Sadly now I think I may have somehow forgotten how to ride a bike

A Lego technic jeep back around the late 80s early 90s. I’ve seen it on amazon a few times and have thought about buying it for nostalgia

Makeup and style head , I remember finding it before Xmas. My mum said it was for my sister.

I don't really remember any other Xmas presents. But this year I've treated myself to baby yoda.

Got a NES and a TV one year, I remember it came with Mario and Duck Hunt on the one cartridge, I played it flat out.

I ended up with about 30 games for it and sold the lot when I was a teenager for about £50 to fund the purchase of a rumble pack for my N64.

Talk about a regret

The only one I remember from childhood is a talking doll. I believe she was subsequently the victim of a medical experiment that went wrong

Do you still have the 'Action Man' figures? I remember finding some of mine in a clear out not too long ago, good memories!

Was there a Christmas present that you really wanted but Santa couldn't fit it on his sleigh?
