I was a young child in the 70s and my favourites were Evil Knievel, Batman’s car, Drag racers and also loved a game of Battleships.
I was never into dolls etc - very much a tomboy.
I also loved my Space Hopper, roller skates and Chopper bike 🙂

I was a sixtys boy and my favourite to was a yellow tonka toy dump truck. Took it everywhere, even on a cruise ship holiday .
Was great when the ship went up and down riding the rough sea waves. The truck would move away and return to me. Kept me happy for hours on end. Apparently it took my mind off the rough seas outside. I even remember the ship was called the carmania
