What has been the best gift you've recieved either as an adult or child or both ?
For me it would have been my Atari as a child and a trip to St.Andrews to play the Old Course as an adult |

Tickets to see Russel kayne....it wasn't the tickets that made it amazing, it was the fact my sister gives up the time to spend time with me when we go to the gigs, its the little things we cherish i. Our memories  |

"As a kid, my first tape recorder (which I used to tape the top forty with it!)
As an adult, Terrys Chocolate Orange  "
and how many times did the DJ speak over part of the song you'd been waiting to tape |

Can't remember much as a child but as an adult who worked 13 hour shifts in the NHS, a whole day off was the best prezzie. Almost all of the photos of me on Christmas Day have me in uniform and bleary eyed. |

I was 7/8 and was desperate for a my little pony show stable. It was very expensive at the time and sold out everywhere. I really thought I wasn't going to get one but good old santa delivered the goods and I was over the moon. I think I was up at 3am and I was found fast asleep in the morning, surrounded by the box and all the contents |

happy memories of trying to record the Top 40 without getting the DJ talking over the songs. Putting headphones on and recording myself singing only for my step-dad to hear me as he toddled off to the loo and telling me i couldn't sing, that i was so out of tune it hurt his ears.
