    Remember when we'd play with tamagotchi's instead of nintendo ds' or iphones?
    Remember when Scooters were the coolest things ever
    And trainers that light up when you walked!!
    And we used to play Spyro on PS1!
    And mario was 2D.

    Ahh.. :rolleyes:

    I remember the tamagotchi things but scooters were never cool. =p
    I've been thinking of what to get my 7 year old niece for Xmas but seriously, what do you get a kid who's got their own iPad?

    I remember when kids played outside, sometimes just kicking a ball about or jumping rope.

    I miss those days and seeing them do it.

    Yeah that's what we usually do. She's still interested in craft and stuff. I've got her a whole bunch of crayons and testers and stuff. They don't look as cool as I remember them to be.

    Good times. Spyro was the shit. And light up shoes. If I could still find a pair of light up shoes in my size I would jump on that shit.

    I remember back in the days when we still had an office cricket match (lawyers vs support staff ... and the women made the tea!) one of the senior lawyers had a daughter who proudly showed me her tamagotchi.

    I pressed a few buttons at random ... and it never recovered! She never spoke to me again :mickey:
