    They had loads in my asda today, think they were £10 which seemed a bit steep for a bit of plastic with a piece of string on the front?!

    Or, do you have something inflatable such as a lilo or a boat..... Might get the inflatable duck out from Butlins as it has handles and should go like a rocket!! I knew it would get another use sooner or later.


    Oh please, if you do post a picture!:rotfl:

    Have 2 sledges but no snow! Bought them when there was no snow anywhere as the previous year when there was snow I could not find any either.

    Bet you all know where I can find some snow now!:rotfl:

    When it snowed last Feb we had 1 sledge for 4 of us. We used the sledge, a large inflatable ring (that was great for packing down the loose snow), we used a skimming board (usually used in the shallow water at the edge of the sea in Cornwall) and a skateboard with the wheels removed - all of them were great alternatives. As a child I used thick black bags and biscuit tin lids (bums too big now).

    We recently got a couple of new sledges at a local cheap and cheerful garden centre - sells all sorts shops. We got a snow shovel at the same time and the sledges and the shovel have been put to good use today.
