I remember everyone having the coca cola, sprite and fanta ones at junior school.

I had one but couldn't yo-yo to save my life just to get it out my bag and hold it.

OMG ….. now I feel really old,,,,,,,

Back I my day, lads at our school used Haversacks to carry their books or sports kit in, and the done thing was to make your haversack flap go really stiff by giving it many coats of household paint before creating your own individual design on the last layer…. ( mine was a tribute to the rock band UFO )

The Peanut!

Concept was thus:

Tighten your tie so tight the knot was the size of a fucking peanut and last man standing before passing out and/or near death won!

Just an insight to Ben at school!

I confess to still having a soft spot for UFO.

And I remember those haversacks. It was really trendy to have the Toy Dolls logo.
