What about Norway?

lmao, completely fecking random.

I did mean lego :) It is the toy of the world. I have got to buy my nephew some, then I can be a control freak and play with it myself.

Seen all the boring kits you get now though, like Captain Whoever and his amazing Death Ship with lasers on it...all in a ready made kit, whats the point? Lego is about being creative and actually using the amazing imagination that little kids have...but...who wants to be creative when you have a Death Ship?

Lego's awfully priced aswell now, it costs about 30 quid for a fiddly car or something that lights up, make your own!!! I made countless different things back in the day. I used to make boats that were like 3 foot long then put them in the bath. Inevitably they sank but that was the fun part :P I used to watch thunderbirds aswell, I got the Tracey Island play-thing for Christmas, the show was amazing compared to the film they brought out last year (N)

I've had to fight off countless urges to build something. (For him obviously :- )

Haha that's spot on. Lego was awesome, i used to spend hours playing with it, and playmobile and Brio.

I always wanted one of those mini jeep's with the electric motor... I never got one :(

At last an old times topic in which most people can relate to.

I especially remember yoyo's (x-brains) and pokemon cards, i remember the chump down the road from me swaped his mew for a charizard and then cried for the rest of the afternoon.

Another classic is conkers!!!!

10am! But I don't wake up til gone 3, ah well, I'll record it...the entire series :)

'John thought this was just another day at work, however, what happened next effected him for the rest of this life'

'well, I got up at 9am, let the dog out and went for a shit. I thought it was a bit of a strange day as I noticed there was no toilet paper, so, obviously I used my hand and then thought nothing of it'

Ahh, I do love 999, just the seriousness of it all, and you have to listen to a life story.
