I also remember one year I had an "aga". Made of tin plate and there were parafin sticks you could buy (like a small version of a firelighter) that could be put in the burners and lit. Don't remember if I actually managed to "cook" anything on it. I did see one a long time ago in a toy museum in Brighton. Can you imagine us getting anything like that now?

Never seen one ..sounds really sweet , it must of been a special gift
 
My truly last year of believing. ... Woke up on Christmas morning and went into the front room and there in a sack was a chalk board, I was so thrilled,really. It was the early 70's.
Never did get the action man with eagle eyes I yearned for. I'm not bitter...........

Hi Rden66 I think most of us asked for something and never got it,funny I got most of what I wanted but always remember what I never got lol.
Maybe we should start a new thread in chat what present did you want but never got?

Is it this one? 'Escalado' from the 1950's... There was one from 1910 but I figured you'd be insulted If I even assumed you all meant that one :hilarious:

That's the one!
Escalado, dear me! No wonder I couldn't remember it's name! It's been a century!:rolleyes::(
 
I always got a tube of jelly tots and a chocolate orange in my stocking every year,well in a pillow case at the bottom of my bed.
