The 70s were so UN PC. If you've ever watched George and Mildred on ITV3 you'd agree!

Oh my goodness, that's a blast from the past. I went on a school trip to Staithes in 1980 and we all bought one of these from a shop in the village. I called mine Chris after a boy i knew

I'm not sure if mine was a proper one, but i loved it and had it for years, no idea where it went to though

I don't remember having any camping related toys, but my daughters had Barbie with a tent and campbed, and Sindy with a rickety caravan!

Once my exams are over I'll put the sindy caravan together again, along with the yellow car, and get a picture of it uploaded. Once I've worked out how to upload a picture that is!

I am Frenchn and my mum bought me one when I was about 13 because our dog was run over and I could not stop crying. It has been with me ever since and is looking worn out... I will be 45 this year! I still take it with me everywhere I go and it has camped happily :-)
It had its own song:
c'est le Kiki
Enjoy your little friends :-)
