    Yep!!

    The phone, till, people with cot etc, dolls house.

    Where I've been working for 4 days this week (Huuuuuuuuuuge manor house ,think big enough to be a huge hotel!) they have a nursery room full of old 70s and 80s toys! I was looking after the baby I usually look after every week but at his Grandparents house as he was staying there a week whilst his parents and sister are in france. I'm not kidding, they're seriously seriously rich but hoard everything! The grandparents kids are all grown up and in their 30s yet it's like they've never left.. EVERYTHING is still there, toys, cots, silvercross prams, high chairs, school books still in desks, school photos up. It even still has stickers all over their bedroom doors with their names on the doors and everything. It's so weird but amazing at the same time, like going back in time when I step into their old bedrooms and nursery!

    This was my fav toy!

    Along with a chicken game which I can't remember the name of, it's bugging me! It was a big white chicken and you put the eggs inside, white ones and golden ones then used a little pokey thing to try and knock the golden eggs out of the nest without making it buzz (Like the game, operation). If it buzzed, the wings flapped and I'd nearly poo myself!

    Zippy I remember all of them had the dog and some of the things anyone remember girls world

    or tiny tears

    I still have in the atic a cuddly ET, a humpty dumpty from playschool and a monkey which is missing is swing (just a piece of dowling) will take a picture he must be 35 years old and still talks with batteries says something on the lines of I like Bananas

    There is a story behind the monkey my nan and grandad bought it me, and it was wrapped up at christmas. My grandad used to drive a mini bus and came home late/early hours did not switch on any lights so he did not wake my nan and kicked the boxed monkey well you can imagine when it said I like monkeys in the dark lol still makes me smile now and I wont be getting rid of it any time soon

    Didnt you love the fact that the door bell doubled up as the light fitting in the lounge??

    when you hit the wee button, it sprung up to hit the metal chime?? ohhhhh that was my fave bit.

    oh and the rolling doors on the garage!

    I wasn't alowed Tiny Tears. My mum felt it was a waste of money! She was funny like that. I only had Mr Pop because I bought it with my pocket money at a jumble sale! We only had board games that were educational, like word games! Same with toys, if my mum thought it was a waste of money, or gimicky she wouldn't buy it! No wonder I used to enjoy playing round my friend's houses!!

    ETA - I wasn't allowed a Girls World either, for the same reasons! I do regularly remind my mother of these things, and tell her I was a deprived child!!!
