Your prized possession as a kid


That’s the Model 15. Cheap and cheerful!
I had one too. Updated later to a BSA Airsporter.
Eeeee,look at me,look at me,I got an airsporter (rub my nose in it why don’t ya)🫤 I always wanted one of them,or an airsporter S with the walnut stock,I used to look at them in Airgun World and wish I had one 🙄
 
I must be wierd, but I never saw the appeal of lego as a kid, and an as adult, I'm horrifed by the price of some plastic blocks.
the bairn got the mclaren lego car for their birthday... i helped make it... :lol:

you can't put a price on their happiness! (or mine! ;) )

Could probably buy a remote control Mclaren car for the same money and actually have fun with it though?
 
I remember when the Evel Knievel bikes came out and I asked for one for Crimbo. My mother said she couldn't afford one so I rigged up an old bike and painted it to look like Evel Knievel's bike then went up Crimdon dene on it and jumped the 10 arches and broke nearly every bone in my body except most of them. My mother came to the hospital 10 days later after I'd come out of a coma and she told me the bad news. My bike was recovered from the dene. It was wrecked. :(;)
 
My Manure bucket. I loved that bucket.

I'd wander the streets with that and a shovel.

Great memories.
Was going to start a thread about stupid reasons for a knuckle...my OP being about two neighbours when I were a lad, fighting over horse manure freshly dumped by the co-op bakers horse. Another neighbour shovelled it up whilst they were fighting.

This is early 50's when everyone grew stuff.
 
Had to be me N64, must've played that first Goldeneye level a thousand times.

Onto the ps1. GTA 2. The Smackdown games.

The PC playing click and move games like Corsair's Gold.

Loved me YuGiOh cards as well, wish a kept them fuckers.
