I used to like those bagatelle games where you shot a marble into different chutes to score.

I still have my musical box bear he comes on all my travels. My father sold my Meccano I was real mad. Still have my Hornby though part of which is running to this day at work. Trainspotting anybody?

The stamps seem to have censored toy guns, cowboys and Indians and Airfix. For a lot of young people then and now the top "toy" was a musical instrument. Collecting stamps too was a major pasttime.

Both OH & I still have our Teddies. Out of those shown, probably my favourite was the fuzzy felts. OH would say his was the meccano

I loved an still love my Teddy . He (Fred cos he is a bit Fredbear) is now 61 years old and still cuddled occasionally. Other than that my soapbox cart and roller skates, I have always been an outside sort of person :-D :-D
