Toys/presents you remember

[mintstick999 485]

when i was a youngster the old man made a lot of our toys wooden shields and swords were all the rage one year i was told that if i was

a good boy santa would bring me a very special present

so was on my best behavior leading up to that special night i woke up early xmas morning and sat in bed eating my apple, tangerine,and a one or two pieces of chocolate money from my stocking that was hanging at the foot of my bed

waiting for mum and dad to bring in my special present it was in a big box at the foot of their bed they called me in to their room so they

could see my face when i opened it then

wow it was a full roman outfit a helmet with full face pull down visor a brest and back plate armor with belt and sword plus leg and

arm protectors (all in grey plastic)

right now in full armour it was out into the street to do battle with anyone and everyone who was prepared to take on this fully kitted

roman soldier

the first thing to break was the sword then unable to defend myself they set about me with there wooden swords ouch arrrrgggg f*ck f*ck

f*ck retreat back to the house battered and bruised lumps on head arms and legs 2mm plastic is no match against a

2" x1" sword

ok guys i am back out anyone for a game of kick the can

Ones i remember most are for all the wrong reasons,1 year me and my brother got skateboards and as we opened our presents at stupid o'clock the only place to use them was up and down the aisles of the shop that my parents owned,Anyway i ended up in a&e having wiped out into the steel shelves and landed up with a scar across my face still visible over 30 years on
