So just for fun as the school year ends in many places today/ this week.
Cast your mind back to those last few days when studying was out and you got to take toys in.
What did YOU take in and remember playing with.

Mine Ker Plunk I was never sophisticated but I remember frustration sure shot soccer and the like
Our daughter a few years back was PS2 stuff

At our primary school last day I think we had top trumps, space crusade, frustration and someone got battle chess going on the Research machine PC (Remember them!).

Outside it was usual ball and rope games.

We had a marbles craze that went on for a while. The really good players used to walk around with ice-cream containers full of the damned things. Other than that, it was Top Trumps.

I remember taking my Gameboy with Warioland but Screwball Scramble, as posted above, was always the winner!

It wasn't mine, some guy took it and we all played, I accidentally broke a plug of one of the push in guns for the marines, though I hadn't noticed, when guy was tidying up he went a bit mental and I was a bit taken aback, as I didn't know I had broken it, it was still usable, just a bit loose now.

This. Actually bought one from a charity shop a few years back for £3 as a secret santa, it was easily the best present there!

And various he-man, MASK and battle beast toys smile
