but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
Is there anything from your childhood that as an adult you'd like to own again.
I really have a bad hankering for another MK1 Raleigh Burner in Red with Yellow pads and tyres, like I had when I was a kid, it was the first new bike I'd ever been bought and I loved it, Its gone now it was languishing in the shed at my parents for years but its disappeared... My mate had a Pro Burner that I also lusted after, however my parents didnt lust after the price tag... |

I got a toy gun for christmas once, can't remember what happened to it, but I'd like that again. Plus all the Dinky, Corgi and Matchbox cars I had, in their boxes in mint condition. They'd be worth a fortune now. Although I'd never sell them. Best of these James Bond Aston Martin, ejector seat, revolving number plates & those tyre shredding things. Was an upgrade from the first Corgi James Bond Aston Martin. Or Captain Scarlet SPV, Joe 90's car, or Space 1999 vehilces we had. I'm showing my age now

I'd like that big radiogram thing that we had in the 'front room'. Long before cassettes and all that nonesense. It sounded awesome as a kid, and I could make a den underneath it.
