Hi all, haven't been on here in ages, but have really enjoyed discovering the Argos stickys!!
I'm hoping someone can help me remember the name of a toy I had when I was small in the early 80's. It was quite a babyish looking train as I remember (quite chunky and in primary colours perhaps?) with an "engine" and a few carriages, but it had no wheels, instead it had plastic C shaped holders (turn the C 90 degrees right) that you inserted empty cans into and these became the "wheels". I know I'm not imagining it! I think we probably put my Dad's old Hoffmeister cans into it as they would have been taller than soft drinks cans and therefore make wider "wheels" when laid on their side to slot into the holders under each carriage. I hope this makes some sense and look forward to any suggestions! It may well have been a late 70's toy as I used to love pokin around Jumble sales! Cheers all.
