Stamp collection was MASSIVE back then.. Plus, that was the time when youthful bicycles for teens were coming into the market , like Herculus MTB..:woot:.. (till then, you just had to make do with that massive dark-green, pre-independence era bicycle that had those humongous wheels..:laugh:) If you had a geared bicycle, you were pretty much the center of attraction in your crowd.

I remember two more kind of pencils. One where the lead was broken in small pieces. you need to take one piece out and push it back from the other side.. No need to sharpen it too. One more was the microtip pencil.. which came with that box full of leads
if I'm correct few kids use to call them automatic pencil ?? right ?

It was Flop Show.. Plus on Thursdays Dekh Bhai dekh and Zabaan Sambhalke used to come.. I think Tehkikaat on Tuesdays and Byomkesh Bakshi on Monday (not sure)

You chor, NRIyon ko gali dethi rehti hai aur unhi ka chocolate khati hai. Why don't you send me their phone numbers, I will ask them to send crap to you next time around.
I like chocolates :embarassed:
