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...

    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. They're clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
