What was yours? I remember as a kid my dad made me a wooden fort. I must have played with it for yonks, it may have been just a sheet of ply cut up and stuck together but to me it was priceless.

I remember a race n chase set with a cop car, a robbers car, a jump and a buttons to make the cars turn 180 degrees. Quality fun!

When I was about 14 my parents bought me a bike. It wasn't so much the bike that was a great gift, but the delivery. All presents unwrapped and me feeling very hard done by due to lack of presents was asked to gather the wrapping paper up and put it in the bin. Mum went off to do the dinner, Dad went out into the garden for some reason. I went out to the bin, and walked back in to find a new bike in the lounge. Bloody sneaky assed parents. :lol:

As a kid, Scalextric set when I was 9 or 10. As an adult, the year we didn't do presents, but went to Disneyland Orlando for Christmas and The Bahamas for New Year.

Got a family pic of me about 4 years old with similar plywood castle, on Xmas day 1968. Loved it.

I recall the trips to Imperial Arcade's Gamley's, but obviously I thought it all came from Santa for many more Xmas's after that.

Can't remember my fave pressie, people usually buy me shit. However this year I am at my Sisters and I have dropped a massive bag of presents off at hers yesterday for her, her husband, my nieces and nephews and even the friend they have staying becasue she lost both parents this year and I've never met and left the massive bag in the hallway so they can clearly see the amount of money I've spent and hopefuly they'l realise whatever dogshit present they've bought me won't suffice and they still have 2 days to go out and buy me something expensive and classy. This probably won't happen but I'm striving for excellence this year.

That's the spirit.

Just empty your sack over your sisters kids and she'll get the point mate.
