    VW Kombi 's ! He can spot one a mile away!
    The other day, he got all excited about helping fold the nappies! Then, when we were at a friends house a few doors up, it started to spit/drizzle rain. He was playing trains (a favourite pasttime), I said "Quick! It's raining! We have to take the nappies off the line!" He was out of her house before I was!

    Green. Loves green. Must have green plate, cup, straw etc.

    The other day I asked him to pack up his matchbox/hot wheels cars. I found a small pile of green ones left. Then another day, there were small piles of each colour car in different parts of the house... This is new! All the red ones were together, all the yellows together, all the blues together (you get the picture!)

    ditto to most of the above

    trains - "toot toot"
    cleaning - sweeping and wiping
    birds
    shoes
    water
    wearing his hat and noticing other people's hats, including motorbike helmets
    clocks
    telephones

    the main one different to those already mentioned is lawn mowers. He got a plastic talking/singing one at Christmas and ever since then he's been a bit obsessed to the point that he will watch them on the bowling green rather than play in the park

    ETA - with the hat thing, he always makes sure to tell other people they are wearing a hat or a helmet
