You were lucky my first bike had stabilisers and it was a snowy winter, didn't get to use it for ages...

Also spent a day at Accy Vic when about 7 when I broke my ankle falling off a space-hopper! Waited for ages as a group of kids had eaten laburnum seeds and were having their stomachs pumped -hadn't thought of that in years. Remember this awful nurse telling me to hurry up and stop being soft as there was nothing wrong with me -went home with a pot -hope it wasn't Margaret!
