Yep, I recognise that 70s decor too! And the 'knitted by gran' tops. Are you eating your fruit in the last piccie? Or practicing the tongue in cheek look maybe?

Think I was practising my "if I keep smiling like this Mum won't notice the burn on the carpet from mucking about with my chemistry set" look.

Those were PROPER toys! Remember indoor fireworks too? Whoever thought of them??

Ah magnesium, such fun stuff! I think that's what we were trying to make when we burnt the carpet.

My brother decided once to put everything in the kit in a test tube once with a spoonful of coffee granules, put a cork in the test tube then hold it over the flame (that bottle thing with the turps and a wick). Result: large brown patch on the ceiling that you couldn't paint over. It was there for years, only disappeared when Mum & Dad had the ceiling re-artexed!
