            I didn't have any of those toys mentioned but I did have Tressie (Tressy?) who was sort of the poor man's (girl's?) version of Sindy & her hair used to grow when you pulled it & shorten when you turned a key in her body! I used to love 'Fuzzy Felt', spent hours making pictures with it & 'Spirograph' too. Always wanted a Spacehopper but never got one.

              anyway can still see my dad, standing up in the back of a dodgy looking Range Rover, zooming up and down a field as there was not enough wind to fly the stunt kites.

                        I liked Hungry Hippos, had slime, Sindy was never a patch on Barbie, Mastermind was great. Would love to get hold of one now.

                        I remember my dad working in Wimbledon whe I was about five, and me and my sister begging him to bring us back a womble.

                        Downfall - sis and I used to play this for ages.

                            Sindy and her horses amused me for ever. And weebles, fuzzy felt, Mr bounce space hopper....................but my most fav toy was a hobby horse my mum found at a jumble sale and covered in fur fabric so i could groom it. That filled the gap until I started riding for real. I used to show jump in the back garden.

                              No-one has mentioned Pogo sticks!!

                              Had to wait until I was 28 to get my own space hopper (why did I wait so long?!?) and I never did get a spirograph - boo hiss! I did have a fantastic fire-engine, though, and those strap on roller skates that were bloody lethal! I remember them tarmacing a cobbled hill and we all went up there to 'test it out'. Oooh there were some injuries that day!
