When I was in grade school we had a similar slide. However it didn't have a platform 1/2 way up. Just a long long climb. Boy was that fun. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Snorter Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Grew up with one of these in the yard, and there was one, wood I admit, at my Great Grand Father's house. The old ones were firmly mounted. They work well, I suspect in very windy areas like my present location, extra care and heavy duty mounting should be in order. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to one of my former bosses, this is the same method used to make a six day camel last seven days. He claimed it worked every time. Never tried it my own self.

Buckshot Bear Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Popular game when I was a kid, lots of us (most) had real bone knuckles though. Kids today wouldn't have a clue what they were or what we're talking about. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I've heard, in England, of having to pay to have electricity come out the socket in the wall. Instead of getting a bill at the end of the month it was pay as you go. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
