Best pressie - "Commodore Amiga" was amazed I'd actually got one!!
Best value for money pressie; "Hero - The Official Story of the 1986 World Cup" on VHS. I must have watched it over 100 times, in the end it snapped, but I loved it so much I fixed it and it still works today, 22 years later.
Special mention to "The Millenium Falcon", spent absolutely hours playing with that thing!!
God Father Christmas was a lot cooler back in those days, although hopefully he's getting me a decent camera this year!

When I was a kid just after the war, we'd get an orange or a banana and be mightily grateful, food rationing wasn't much fun.

Lego JCB. 5 hours to build it, 2 minutes to grunge it all up with sand.

Before my mum remarried I lived in relative poverty as a little kid. Then living in Germany with the armed forces saw us quite well off and I did alright at Christmas - M.A.S.K, WWF wrestlers, TMNT, He-Man, Thundercats, Real Ghostbusters, LEGO etc etc etc We then got posted back to England and the party was well and truly over. |

As a big car fan I liked micro machines and thos cars which got dents in them when you crashed them, I think Hot Wheels made them.

There's something terribly ironic about that first part of the sentence. |

oh my days. i can still see the box, black with silver criss-cross.
That picture just got me excited again. I can remember I knew was getting my megadrive, and it come with Sonic 1....but my mum and dad got me Sonic 2 as well (with tails). I was so happy, i really didnt know what to play first. Similar to when i got my playstation 1....i was a bit older, but I remember playing a football game and thinking it looked like TV. |

I got this weird Tomy computery game type thing tht you held up to your eyes so it was kind of 3d. The controls were on the top. Sort of a primitive virtual reality thingy.
