Classic car show
Disappointingly few of them, but what was there was good.
A few well restored Trabants were on show. They really became a collectors' item after German reunification.
The petrol tank was in the engine compartment!
My favourite? In the cars section probably the Jag 420 G, and you could still smell the leather. Lots of wood too, including picnic trays.

It's not the kids you need to worry about it's the parents. These days every kid is a 'winner'. Needs to be enough layers with a sweet between each layer for every kid.Originally posted by administrator View Post
Last time some kids didn't get a sweet and a couple of parents had a go at me.
Enjoy.

I have strict instructions to "make sure none of the annoying or naughty children win".Originally posted by oracleslave View PostThat's tougher to rig than I thought, my daughter won the main prize at her own party
I will be taking my collection of old modem dial out noises and C64 game theme tunes. If the kids don't appreciate the beauty of the music from Last Ninja 2 they won't get any sweets.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostWell just make sure it's a CD and steer clear of anything computer based. A three year old is not going to understand the type of 'service unavailable' messages you publish on here.
