The most popular football game at the time was Striker, where you pressed the player's head and he would kick the ball.

I had had this cheaper version, where you had to pull back the players leg and let go, scored some cracking goals though...

The figures came blank so you could paint them in your fav club's colours...

Forget James Bond or The Man From Uncle, I had what was a must-have for every budding Carlos-The-Jackal - The "Secret Sam" Attache Case...

The camera really worked and you could use it and/or fire the bullets from the gun 'secretly' when the case was closed - or fire that red thing (a 'secret message holder') to your 'oppo'.


Wonder why don't we give children imaginative toys like this any more?

Obviously Baader Meinhof was big in your area maxxi, we had to make do with comedy guns.

The original was called Bazooka, fired 'deadly from 2 feet' ping pong balls, and came in a nice shade of utilitarian grey, perfect for the revolution...

    • Nope. I don’t have this wrong. I’ve tried to put my point across respectfully, and explain that I understand the nuance of editing, story-telling and reporting better than many, without resorting to personal, angry insults. And all my colleagues agree that the BBC got this right in its condemnation.    All you see is confirmation bias.    If you don’t realise that, then you’re part of the problem.    
    • We have always gone during the week at lunch time - great place and good value. Husband has been several times on his own and owner knows his first name. I could not go one time for some reason and she sent him home with some spring rolls (free)
    • We did but they would not budge.   Anyway this was last year - things may have changed and staff may be different. It was a man who served us.
    • Because some people have weird fake beliefs and when people point out just how fake by pointing at actual events the fake people get all huffy and say “this is why “ make your argument instead of repeating  nonsense - why am I wrong? Because what you have said doesn’t make that argument  or admit you might have this wrong  Which words on my last post are false or make you not post? What is the problem ? Someone posts: “You don't know what you're talking about, Sephiroth,” and I reply with that happened.  And this same person the responds with “this is why people don’t post on the forum anymore !” like - they were rude  to and dismissive of me, right?  But I’m the bad guy?
