James May's Top Toys
Did anyone else see this last night on BBC2 ?
I've always like May's writing style - now I like him even more. Forcing kids to play with proper toys and then setting up a train set for
him and his mates to play with - superb.
P.S. Did anyone else find themselves recognising who his mates were (Goodwin and Frankel among others) and thinking - 'what an Anorak I
am'.......

I always read his section in the Telegraph motoring, always full of useless but interesting infomation.

Smashing the Scalextric GT40 was stupid.

I remembered the bit about building little cars and trucks in lego and having to imagine that it actually looked like a truck. In fact the one he
showed on the tv , I'm sure thats the one I built . An like he said the new lego you'd be as well just buyin a plastic truck .
I Think I'll dig out the old box of lego and have a play on the holidays. has anyone ever built a locost lego replica

Ok, the guy that made the Lego model is taking things *way* too seriously.
