Desperately seeking a sledge...

Wish we could go sledging. Not only do we often miss out on the snow, or only get enough to last a few hours, we don't have anywhere hilly.

This week, what little we have had is still with us, which is unusual.

we used the body boards (mini surf boards) and they flew down, they put them in rubble sacks, went like a rocket!! fab time! left the people with the plastic sledges way behind!!

That's what me and OH will be using tomorrow, his parents have a couple in their shed. We had a look in town this lunch time for a sledge but no joy. We went into one sports shop as we were told they had a £90 one in there!! (we just wanted to check out was £90 of sledge looked like but they were gone). Even the market didn't have any. One toy shop guy said he wised he had, he'd have made a killing. Especially since we live near the Malverns, lots of lovely snow covered hills!!

To those looking for sleds, we went looking just before Christmas to replace a broken one and couldn't find one anywhere.
Homebase did say that they had not received any yet this winter and would be getting stock in January - maybe you could try there?

entertainer at denton crown point (Manchester) had about 80 blue ones today for £12, Also sports direct in denton had little ones that looked like a big spade I think they were £5.

I grabbed the kids one as did everyone I saw in the carpark, even got cornered in the shops with people asking were we go it from.:eek: I would ring to check before you go (oh yes the car park has been cleared so ok to drive around)

Lady at work bought one today from either JJB or Sports Soccer. Cant remember which store she said but it was one of them!

Have you see the Bobski's sledge? We sell them and they sell really well. They were on the Gadget Show this winter.
