Nowadays the dark side of the computer is that is keeping the childrens inside, in front of the screen and they socialize through FB or similar...nothing to do , just to wait until the trend goes away.... But it will take generations...
Lego? I had meccano in my day
We had "Combine" , a poor copy of the Lego, on a bigger scale.
But the most wanted toys of the time were , guess?: the Matchbox made in England , by Lesney! I still have few models from the first lot: E type, Cadillac and Silver Ghost. Priceless! The most spectacular trades were done arround Matchbox serie, because after playing few days, you're tempted for another model from your pals.
After they made it in China, the details and the charm was gone away... Is just a toy to keep in the pocket...
@Faheem's quote: " Except me. Youngest on the forum."... Except me. Youngest on the forum(I think)
Keep making statements like that and they'll be forum members checking your car at the next cruise to see if the pedals have wooden blocks taped to them so that you can reach them. Frankie

Happy days ehYep, I am talking 1969 when I was seven. Do the math chaps....
Played outside all day, came home covered in mud and never got ill, never killed anyone, well, with the exception of throwing spears at each other when one went through a lads welly boot and his foot.
Could have been worse.....
Anyone read my caption line!
