I miss the best game ever invented........KNOCK & RUN.
Also for me it was bikes and scalextrics.All my mates had bikes.If you walked ,you were poor.
Dug these out of the loft last year and stuck them on e-bay.Kinda regret it now.

Computer games wise we has an Atari 65 XE with tape games.. took fucking forever to load a game! (centipede, up up and away, missile command)

Then I had a NES with a Gyro bot and the Zapper for Duck Hunt

TV:- Cities of Gold, Dogtanian and the three muskehounds, Why don't you?, trap door also remember liking a aussie program 'Round the twist' they lived in a weird lighthouse.. quailty theme tune and proper fancied the blonde girl in it for some reason untill they changed her!

Sweets:- Jaw Breakers, Chocolate tools, flying saucers, shrimps and fizzy cola bottles

Used to collect Garbage pail kids which came with tha hardest bubble gum known to man Also the Beano comic/annuals. I also loved pratical jokes like Whoopee Cushions, Stink bombs, itching powder etc and the pride and joy was a little device that used to set of caps called a detonator used to but them under my mums books, doors, toilet seat etc

Toys:- Transformers, Lego (not quite as elaborate or extensive as Luca mind ) and big Hotwheels loop the loop with you dropped your matchbox cars down from the height of the back of the sofa.

Fashion or rather lack of : Neon shoe laces, Friendship bands, pop swatchs, bright green Converse Allstar boots and I had a pair of jeans with a ET picture printed on them and yes I had curtains

Transport: the old dear had a Sunburst XR3 and the old man had a Stratos Silver RS1600i I had a Raleigh Boxxer which I smashed my face up with and then a green BMX made by Puch? Also used to spend ages making soapbox cars with pram wheels etc

Would love to go back and experience it all again
