    I had a Raleigh Boxer, which was the one below the Striker.

    When I got a bit older I really wanted a Raleigh Bomber or a Grifter though, never got one.

    Also used to really want a Mr Frosty for some reason.

    and I had a Chopper which was like yer primary school mod bike, plus I had the flags.. AND got stopped by the local fuzz for carrying a passenger..

    these babies appeared in the Who's lyrics..

    "I ride my Raleigh Chopper with my hair cut neat, I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet.."

    What did you expect mate ?

    The chopper had that white band across the rear of the seat that clearly stated that the cycle was not designed to carry passengers .

    Lucky you didn't get a ticket IMO !!!!

    Preferred the SNES and Sega Mega Drive.

    Even though i didn't own any of them though.

    PS1 was class and all.

    A full Cowgirl outfit sent by my aunt from the US in 1947.Included black Stetson,boots with spurs, Gene Autry shirt with 2 cap firing pistols.No trouble getting into a 'gang' in those days as all the boys fought over who borrowed my guns! Certainly I created a stir in Millom whenever I walked the street.All that was missing was a horse.

    I got a Thunderbirds Tracy Island model with all the vehicles when I was 5. The swimming pool moved back and the trees parted to let Thunderbird 2 launch :D So awesome. Also got a Playmobil Pirate Ship, was quality.

    I got an N64, was a huge step up from a Mega Drive, I was hooked. Goldeneye was good, but once Perfect Dark came out, that was it. It was, unfortunatley, almost superior in every way to GE.
