I was one of those children obsessed with dinosaurs, and those little plastic farm animals.

I now dream of owning a farm one day.

kcavendish95 it's amazing I did a car boot once and a man next to me turned up.with two large boxes of dinosaurs and tipped them on the table. I thought he won't sell them! How wrong was I he sold nearly all of them!πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ’ maybe one day you'll own a farm!πŸ’πŸ’

What is pocket money? 🀣

I always craved for an animal but was never allowed any, so I looked after the ants and snails outside 🀣 When I was finally allowed a hamster I spent anything I had on her. ❀️

I also saved any birthday, Christmas or anything I made by begging people if I could clean their cars πŸ˜† and started to collect Sylvanian Families. Sadly I sold what I did have when I was 18, it would have been amazing to have been able to pass them down, but needed space and money for bills etc.

For me it was barbies and books. For my son it is Lightning Mcqueen and toy cars. His bedroom is filled with Lightning Mcqueen and Disney cars.

I was obsessed with polly pockets and dolphins. My mum kept all the polly pockets for me and I sold them all a few years back.

My mum told me that I was obsessed with playing with everyone's shoes. Sounds strange but kept me happy.

It was so long ago, I don't remember. When I was a kid, we didn't have much Β£ so I don't remember having that many toys. But lots of books.
