mine has to be the Hornby train set i was given at my birthday in early sixties.. (the proper die-cast type with steam coming out of its funnel)
I was so fond of this train set i hardly played with it,fearing i might break it...It was locked up most of the time and i would only play with it on special occasions..

what was your favorite toy?

I was a proper little girl! I had lots of dolls, all shapes and sizes! I would spend hours doing their hair, clothes, nappy changes etc but best of all was taking them for a walk in their pram! Sheer delight as a young child!!

When our sons were younger I used to love joining in when they played with their 'Brio' 'Lego' and 'Pirate Ship' Hours of innocent fun!

My bicycle with which I moved around Famagusta. The things I made myself, slingshots (catapults for the British), bows and arrows, a spear gun that never speared any fish. And there were the seasonal games and the toys that went with them- marbles, spinning tops and pen knives to play the game of "tchakoui" which is like a partition game on a drawn square on the soil. You throw the knife into the square and slice off a chunk along the entry line of the knife. You keep the biggest side. People take turns and the winner is the guy who ends up with the biggest piece of real estate.

Thinking back to that time, the stuff in my pockets would land me in jail if I were in England.

Why specifically the British ?
