my sister had a tiny tears doll and when she had to go into broomstick plasters (both legs thigh to ankle in fibregals plasters with a broomstick between the ankles to set the legs at a certain angle) the hospital put some on her tiny tears doll to make it less scary

i was a bit of a toyboy and had lots of He-Man action figures

Hand made go karts with old pram wheels and bits of spare wood, how good where they? We used to make bow and arrows too, and a tent out of an old sheet thrown over the washing line! Those where the days!

Lego all the way for me, absolutely loved it!

Also loved my Hornby train sets which invariably broke because I was too young to appreciate the value of looking after them... and my subbuteo quickly went the same way also. The harder-wearing Lego won the day

had an action man.....but from age of 6 was allowed to run wild through the countryside...this was my playground right through until I was in my early twenties....by early teens I was armed to the teeth with a knife and a rifle and a wealth of knowledge about my surroundings....used to stay out in the woods, set up camp hunting and foraging for food. I could have been Ray Mears!!!!

Straight jacket, padded cell, great when you escaped from the jacket and ripped the padding from the walls.

Same when I learned to swim in the local canal, swimming was easy it was getting the brick out of the bag and untying my hands.

My mum brought lots of uncles round to entertain me when I was a kid.
