I wanted to be a boy!







So I could have had a Scalextric! My dad initiated me in most of the important things of life - football, westerns, playing cards and chess, and education so I could be independent from chauvinist, sexist men,...but he never bought me a Scalextric. Sindy was never really a suitable substitute.

Anyway, this year is Scalextric's 50th birthday. So all you blokes out there who still own and play with your coveted Scalextrics, spare a thought for us deprived girls who long ago chucked out our Sindy's in fits of pique [bugger could have probably sold her on ebay] only to leave a gaping hole of unfulfilled, burning tyre desire!
