    Cutting edge in its day. You pressed the head and the player kicked the ball. Hi tech indeed. :56:

    Google ain’t got no pics. But a caddy made out of bits of bedans elastic bands and fired v shaped copper wire. Then you progressed to rubber ring guns made out of carved wood and fired big thick rubber seals from pipes, then duck caddies.

    Yes! We called them guiders. Great fun, used to race them down our hill. Was like a scene from the Wacky Races. No cissy helmets in those days either.
