Walker570 Posted December 23, 2020 Report Share Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) Brilliant and reminds me of a wooden kangaroo my dad made for me 75yrs ago. Put it on a tray or sloping board and it would hop down the slope. Just simple pleasure like your boys are going to have with those wondeful trucks. Well done and a happy christmas to you.

fatchap Posted December 23, 2020 Report Share Posted December 23, 2020 Now thats what I like to see. proper handmade Christmas presents the way it was. Sadly though talent, skill and thought like that would be wasted on some of the obnoxious offspring out there nowadays For instance If I had the skill to make one of those and gave it to my 7 year old nephew he would throw a temper tantrum of biblical proportions. If it hasn't got a touch screen and you can play games on it, as far as he is concerned its rubbish, and will not hesitate to tell you that either. Last year he was very angry at the present his dad got him. He wanted a particular type of light saber, Paul my brother couldn't get one in time so had to get an alternative. When he opened it on Christmas day and saw it wasn't the right one he chucked a major fit, threw it across the living room screamed at his dad unfortunately for Thomas my Dad was there. punishment for being an ungrateful spoiled little brat was swift and merciless. My brother know's all to well and about that and so do I. At Christmas when we was young you liked every present you got or suffer the consequences.

Blackpowder Posted December 23, 2020 Report Share Posted December 23, 2020 They are rather good, still going to be played with long after the injection moulded plastic of today is a pollution item. Blackpowder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
