Hahaha, that dog was so cool Lady Joan.
We were some of those children that raced around with "cars" made from wire coat hanger levers with old empty cans as the wheels.
We also made our own scooters with planks and used old car ball bearings as the wheels.
Blessings!

Yesteryear toys built with pride for hours of enjoyment. We found an old wooden bathroom 'floor mat', pram chassis and wheels, plenty of scars to show from spills and thrills of youth.
Parents never had excess cash, being inventive was part of team work, the go-cart was used by about ten of us with parts coming from each home of local friends, built together in the garage.
Hahaha, now that speaks of innovation Lady Joan, and fond memories of course. Of course you would not wonder why we were banned from all of the garages in the area.
Only the open veld was available to us Lol
Hope that you guys have a good week.
Blessings!
We had a nice hill to cruise down, drag cart up and get some speed. Right next to open veld to get out and enjoy when the cart entertainment wore off.
Those were the days very few cars on the roads and children could play outdoors without a worry in the world.
Such great times that we all had my friend. Such fond and sometimes painful memories hahaha
Blessings!
