Always wanted a frosty slush maker and a star wars millennium falcon but unfortunately never got one

I did befriend a nerdy kid who had an amazing star wars toy collection and went over his house regularly to play with his toys.

There’s more mystique in never getting that big plastic toy you always wanted rather than getting it and realising after a while it’s just plastic cr&p.

That’s what you should tell your wife anyway.

Better to never own that one I reckon. Probably a load of rubbish. The fun enjoyed and the smooth operation in that advert wouldn’t be the case in real life. Plus it might’ve turned you into someone out to kill, hurt or damage people.

That’s made me feel so much better. Don’t want one any more now. Thank you Rudi.

Anyway, I’m a member of a rifle club so I have access to other toys.

You still have a fetish for guns but not to shoot living things. All is well.

Pontoon bridge.

How I longed for one of those. No idea why, they didn’t do anything, you just clipped some bits of plastic together and that was it, however I used to dream of owning one

I did befriend a nerdy kid who had an amazing star wars toy collection and went over his house regularly to play with his toys.

Me and my mate collected lots of Star Wars figures between us. I once found a £5 note outside Bros's house (late 1970's and still at school) and we bought a Canteena, but couldn't afford a Millenium Falcon.
So we built a MF out of old cardboard boxes and a bit of paint. Probably more functional than the one by Palitoy.

The things I really wanted were my mate's older sister and/or Carrie Fisher. I got neither

However, a few years later I got a great viewing of my mates sisters baps as she was breast-feeding.

Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.
