Welcome wonkywheels. I have had to resize your picture to a smaller file size for easier viewing.

Thank you ,Durangokid -you sound like a western movie star (head 'em up mov 'em out, cowboy!)- but looking at my photo must have missed out a box of my favourites.Numbers 7,19,22,33,38,43,49,53,56,66 and a few more .Must be at the back of the wardrobe.Something to do today.Love number 33.The Ford Zodiac.Reminds me of Steve Zodiac in Supercar.Great puppet .Just get my strings untangled and I'll lollop off to find those cardboard boxes.Where is my puppeteer? Ah there you are,my dear.

No ,I can see number 33 Ford Zodiac ,orange and grey.Half way up on the left.The green one must be somewhere.Mike Mercury was in Supercar."It's the marvel of the age." I believed it all then and it has had its effect.I still walk like a puppet- hands held high and knees up in the air.
