Ah yes, the Sikorsky helicopter...
This might be an opportune moment to ask if anyone has any Pocketeers they want to get rid of. If you don't know what I'm on about, http://www.gyruss.demon.co.uk/ian/pocketeers/index.html may refresh your memory. I'm, er, trying to collect them.

Cool!! I remember them now!!....I used to love the fruit machine type ones....I think that's probably where my addiction to the poxy things started.....

I reckon I still have some old F1 Top Trumps somewhere still. If they've brought out new ones I reckon I'll buy some for the erm... Bairn !

I had an old set of 1st division cards with a selection of mullets and crooked teeth on display.

Of course, the game name caused much hilarity with "trump" being the vernacular for breaking wind.
