One of the things I remember most about my childhood is every saturday my late father would take me in to town in Glasgow, Scotland where we lived and let me pick a hot wheels or a matchbox car. We would then go to a nearby cafe for a cake and a cola for the unboxing ceremony. Im sure he liked them as much as me

He must have kept that up till I was about 11 or 12 when I got too old for it.

I now find myself doing the same for my 2 boys who are 8 and 4.

I always look out for a yellow 986 but no joy as yet.

Dont know where all mine went but I seem to be forever standing on my sons collection lol
