Received these today, for some fun with the kids and paper cups.....

I've given them two applications of furniture wax, as they come unfinished and I hate things becoming tatty.

Would be brilliant if you work in an office, to torment your co-workers.

That looks like fun.

As a kid we all had these. We went out "all tooled up" with catapults, serious "Bowie Knife" blades, worn in full view,
throwing knifes, air guns and bows and arrows etc.

The "Teddy Boys" had cut throat razors as a fashion accessory, but I never heard of anyone being even slightly injured!

I have a scar on my left hand, because a throwing arrow was stuck on the string, but that was a minor incident!

Looking at how things were back then, and now, for kids I wouldn't change anything.

We were out all day in the countryside, with fresh air and exercise, and the only discipline was to be home before dark.

Yup...we did all that stuff, and actually got paid for ratting on the farm.....1 old penny for each one.
Might not sound like much but we got a few piles each from the barns,

One memorable moment for me was riding on a trailer, behind the tractor, to pick up a newborn calf.

I had to hold it to prevent it from being thrown about, and it was a pretty slimy experience but very memorable.
