Looks like a fantastic toy steam engine!!!

Hopefully your son will grow to enjoy such things and take after his dad! :thumbup:

David, I did try that first but it didn't seem to work! Will try again .. just had a look and changed check box to 'old embed code' to see if that works! .... nope, still can't do it!

Thanks John, it did bring happy memories back! I remember it squirting boiling oil and water everywhere, I must have been more careful the way I set it up - must be a little bit wiser now at least! You're right, most of the modern toys are a load of rubbish ... maybe with some exceptions like Playmobil ...they are still selling the same things I had when I was a kid and they've lasted. My parents dug my old pirate ship out of the loft for the boys, that's only lasted 25 years though and not been used in between!

Andrew, thanks, I hope he will. It started off well but now computers seem to have totally taken over his interests :scratch:  :doh:

Incidentally, does anybody know how you embed youtube vids now rather than just link? The icon seems to have gone!
