An ancient set of GPO instruments, comprising of a feet and inches tape measure, a spirit level and a set square. With such instruments the masons of old constructed Thebes and Rome. My old Dad used them to ensure telegraph poles were straight.

Bought a model train set. It's a replica of a 1950s set and the illustration displays fifties diversity. There's a dark and a fair haired boy. Apparently there were also 'girls' and 'gingers' but they did their best to ignore them. Certainly they did not play trains.
