    Remember the days when you were able to collect football coins, Texaco were my favourite?

    Trying to pass them off as legal tender to the old dear in the sweet shop and her having your b o l l o x for trying it on! 🤣

    These days you just tell the shopkeeper you’ll send them 20 Zoggs and they nod approvingly do as not to make themselves look stupid.

    The world has gone mad.

    I remember them, but my favourite was collecting the little plastic "heads" of famous players they used to do. Think they were part of the Joe Mercer collection from late 60s/early 70s maybe from Shell or Esso?

    As for all this "virtual" stuff, I totally agree! As part of our youngest's A level course they were discussing NFTs. How can you "own" a virtual piece of art? WTF? I mean, what is the point? (then again, I am much happier to own "hard copy" dvds/cds/books than digital/cloud ones so could be just me..&#129300
