I'm grateful for the suggestions. However, I know this is sacrilege, but Subbuteo was gubbins.
Thank god (well, Dino Dini) that Kick Off was eventually invented.
As good as kick off was (and it was ace) it wasn't as good as sensible soccer which was, is and forever will be the greatest football computer game of all time. For ever and ever. And then some.
Sensible Soccer was ridiculously addictive, very slick and hugely playable, but a touch simplistic (which was part of its charm, but also its slight flaw for me). When Kick Off 2 arrived though, THAT became the daddy. Those raking Dunk-esque long angled crossfield passes into space down the wing...oh yes. Come to papa.
Ah, Kick Off, Kick Off 2, sensible soccer, sensible world of soccer. Kids today with their FIFA don't know what real football games are.

Airfix models was my thing. Such a big part of a Saturday morning was looking around in Gamleys to see if you had saved enough pocket money for the new Lockheed Starfighter or something. Luckily I had a son and could re-live it all again. Now he's grown up I need a grandson.

Is the right answer.
The cloth pitches were an UTTER waste of time. HAD to have the astro.
nooo, top floor for Brittians tractors (Spelling?) and Scalextric!
Or of course Beatties over the road
Didn't they do miniature toy soldiers as well. It was so much fun back then. The T'internet has killed all that
Yes! I had hundreds of them.
Someday in the future some archeologist will dick up our old rockery and find all the ones I lost re-enacting WW2 battles.
Wonder what they will conclude?
The carpet was fine it was the cloth, which after being folded up in the box for ages, always had big long creases in it. I wasn't allowed to use the iron in cased somebody phoned.
