Not to out do you guys, but over here in the states, I started out with a Radio Shack 'computer' that consisted of 10 slideable switches and 10 flashlight bulbs. You ran wires betweens the slideable switches to create 'programs'. Wish I could remember what this thing was called - my google-fu fails me. This was approx 1976 when Popular Science's ELF-1 with 256 bytes was quite a sensation.
