Did anyone used to buy a bunch of plain VHS tapes and record programmes on them? I used to have so many VHS tapes piled up next to the TV with some paper attached to them with sellotape describing what was on the tape. Things have become too easy these days, haha.

Anyone remember those yoyos that were popular during the early 00s? I think you could buy ones which would would light up. They were all the rave back then when I was in my early teens.

I was OBSESSED. I was also pretty good with the cradle trick and walking the dog.

I found an old yoyo last year and gave it a go and almost took my eye out so that went straight back in the drawer :ROFLMAO:

They were good fun. It seemed everyone had them at the time.

I remember being in a toy shop that sold them once and someone letting one off. It was worse than I could have imagined, they had to close the shop for the rest of the day

Does anyone else remember the thing with pins in it, you pushed your hands in to make a print? Then the pins slowly come up again. I can't remember the name, but that comes to mind too. The other one was rubber throwing toys, we used to throw them to the ground and they would bounce. I can't even remember the point of the game, haha.

Yes! As a kid that was great fun, but now I'm *slightly* more mature and aged I can fully understand why adults hated it :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

IIRC It's a bit of a faff to clean and it's quite flammable, so I can see why people don't like it.
