Those were the days my friend...Whip & top..yeah..remember them well. Hula hoops..not the edible 1's...Diabalo's,..Snobs ( little chalk cubes ) we used to throw into air & catch on back of hands..then throw the 1's we caught n try to pick up the others before catching the ones we had tossed into air...(something to that affect anyway )also another version called Jacks.Walkie talkie dolls (for us girls )My uncle & grandad had a mold & lumps of lead which they would melt down & pour into the molds & make little lead soldiers for my 2 bro's. One of my bro's buried some of those soldiers @ the top of the garden. Wonder if they are still there somewhere.Meccano sets for the boys. Hmmmph....bits to pick up everywhere after they had done playing.Bunty annuals (again for the girls , though my bro's liked a read of it too ) & Hotspur annuals for the boys.They were mainly Christmas presents .Using a penknife to play "splits "...any of you remember that one?.The list goes on & on.
