Carol, I'm glad someone else remembers - yes they were a bit lethal. Took your life in your hands riding on them - when one bit of the hat 'bumped' against the central pole if you didn't hang on you were in trouble. Not something you wanted to be on if a gang of bigger and heavier kids climbed on the other side. They had one in my local park in the 70s, probably long gone now. I also didn't like those big roundabouts with the running boards round the edge that you climbed onto then sat on, holding onto the metal bars that radiated from the centre. If you wanted to get off when no -one else did you literally had to jump and take your chances. And do you remember those other rides - the ones that were like a 6 seater wooden 'rocking horse' on a metal base - each seat had a metal handlebar in front. The whole thing rocked back and forward. When it rocked, it bumped heavily against the base and you ended up with a numb bum if you stayed on too long. Angela |

You can have the swing, I don't like it. I'm going on the 'witches hat'. Then we can do the seesaw, but only if you don't bump too much as I might fall off. Angela |
