Got an absolute bollocking from my dad when I was maybe about 8 for attempting to iron my Subbuteo pitch and instead managing to burn the thing and melt the carpet underneath. Oops.

Fired it up some fishing line and it turned/came in for landing. It looked great on the telly but was bored after 5 minutes You must be about the same age as me as I’ve the same sad tale.

Tazio Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Loads of games on here that I’d forgotten about but instantly remembered when I saw the photos. I remember getting Battling Tops one Christmas. That was a brilliant game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years ago my flat mate and I had a monopoly night with a couple of mates for a laugh. Brandy and cigars, business suits the whole lot for a daft laugh. Within a couple of hours the whole thing was threatening to boil over into violence and had already worked it’s way up to shouting and insults. We didn’t repeat the experiment.

Lots of strange glances when grown men would slope of to the gents for privacy to discuss moves. Hibby ex mate didnt speak to me for years afterwards because apparently i 'cheated' in submitting the wrong moves after my real ones just so he could see, on the same turn he wanted to shaft me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t remember what it was called though. I eventually took it apart myself with a screwdriver to see how it worked and it was all string underneath, never worked the same afterwards.
