grinder Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Do you remember those gray plastic deep sea divers with the red plastic tube coming out of his helmet, I think it was Ivor the Diver they called him....? You put him in a bowl of water and he would sink to the bottom, I spent hours blowing down the tube bringing him back up to the top... Talk about little things please little minds, and I still call it him..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curriechick Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Spirograph, now there's something I haven't heard of in a while, I used to spend hours playing with that. My brother had one of those diver things too. I had a "Tressy" doll, does anyone remember her a forerunner to Barbie you could make her hair grow by pulling it then pressed a button in her back to wind it back in and start all over again, she was the same size as a Barbie. After Tressy came Cindy who I always thought was better than Barbie, not as flash. My brother Eagle Eye Action Man became her boyfriend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curriechick Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Exactly.the options were endless:D Yes but I can't see your daughter walking round with one clasped to her ear believing it is a Blackberry, mind you when I was that age we got our Blackberry's from the brambles in next door's garden.
