Used to get in so much trouble as a kid trying to keep the telly on quiet after bedtime, even going to the lengths of putting sheets over the tv to block the light showing through the door header, lol

Football rattles. Probably banned for health and safety reasons. 
I used to buy mine from the local cobbler when I was a nipper.
I also recall buying what I think were called Segs. A type of metal stud that I would hammer into the heels of my boots and walk along, clicking with each step. Propper hard I was with those.

Football rattles reminded me of taping a lollipop stick on my bike frame to make that awesome sound on the spokes.
Remember Cobblers?
Remember Bruce Grobbelaar? (My hero as a kid)
Were you a bit of a Tap-dancer Paul?

Loved em Paul. Got all 21 DVD's. My 11 year old daughter and I get up early most days at Christmas and watch them. Not sure why it's just at Christmas, no work or school I guess.

Yep, did the lollipop stick and similar with my bikes.
I was never a lap dancer. Don't know who told you that!

No wonder he said he always felt like the conductors were walking all over him in On The Buses.
That's made my day, that has!

Old leather lace-up footballs that would break your neck if you headed them, especially when wet.
The smell of dubbin on a wet leather casey was something else.
Rock hard, orange, Mitre size 3 footballs.
I got hit on the back of my thigh by one of those from a thundershot when I around 10 years old and I'm not sure if the imprint has gone yet!

Hehe. The Mitre brand brings back a memory. I saved all my pocket money for months to buy a Mitre multiplex (size 5) and a really hi-tec pair of Sondicco goalie gloves that cost more than the ball and far too big for my tiny hands.
Took them into school the next day and messing around playing football in the cloak room a mate hammered the ball square onto a coat hook and 'BANG' it went. Sounded like a bomb going off echoing around the corridors.
Needless to say I never got a replacement.

Remember Simon Says?
A round thing with four coloured sections that plays a sequence that you had to replicate.
Big Track?
A white six wheeled vehicle that you could program to go forward so many spaces, left/right so many spaces etc etc etc. You could buy a tipping trailer for it and include that into the program
