Clarke's 'Tuf' Shoes. This was a real hard wearing shoe (and boots) and very comfortable to walk/run in. A pleasure to buy, own and wear.

Winter warmers. Remember them? A discarded fruit tin with holes punched in the bottom and a piece of wire for a handle. Make a fire in it, then swing it round to get the fire glowing. A handy tool for warming snowball cold hands on a winters day.

Yes, i remember them, Frano and if you and your mates lit enough of them, you could clear large holes in the Winter fog along the streets. But i still think the streets looked better enveloped in the fog. More seasonal, as it were.

Longish, narrow, metalled 'Pea Shooters', with the small round metal disc round the blowing end of it. 'Phhuett' - "got yer".
