Love this thread, a few other childhood memories are Airfix Models and Annuals, my Nana would buy us either the Broons or Oor Wullie every Christmas
My sister sent me the Broons or Oor Willie in turn every year. She stopped when when I reached 50 years old (don't know why).Love this thread, a few other childhood memories are Airfix Models and Annuals, my Nana would buy us either the Broons or Oor Wullie every Christmas
I think I must have been about four and I had a doll about 24" high and a Silver Cross dolls pram and Dad had made a crib for the doll. I think the pram ended up being used by dad as a wheelbarrow when I'd outgrown playing with it. I often think about what it might have been worth now if I still had it.
