What is the first Christmas present you can actually remember getting.

Mine was a wooden aeroplane my dad made for me when I was about four. My parents did not have any money after dad was demobbed from the RAF after the war, so I gather from my mum, it was that or nothing. I can still see it in my minds eye now, a silver sunderland flying boat, made from old pieces of wood. A few years later, when things got a bit better, they bought me and my brother a friction BEA Viscount plane, which cost them more than they could afford. But we never went without
Stopping now....making me feel a bit emotional
