Many people had these in the late 1950's. Seeing it as a child had no impact, only that it was a cute bit of equipment. Looking at it now, pretty horrendous.

You can get micro Simons now. Hand held. Wouldn't be the same thought would it ? A great game for a family, no one could fall out .


There was one of these glass feeding bottles in our house, which we used to play with for our dollies. I assume mum used it for us as babes. A teat on both ends. Maybe less wind. I bet Beethoven remembers them ! wink

No Granny, that's the first thing posted that I can't remember seeing before. My mam used to cut the end off one of the fingers in a Marigold glove to feed us.

A high quality visual tour of the Wirral Peninsula in the UK, filmed during the year 1934 and maybe a little earlier too.
