I used to ride one of these down my road and get onto two wheels!
WOW that was a mean trike , when stuff was made to last.
We all rushed to CNA month end to lay our grubby little paws on a copy of Smash Hits magazine all the way from the UK

I still have one of those irons for a doorstop, unfortunately the Aga coal stove was left when me moved, and we were never allowed to go back and fetch it when we were evicted by family.“Sad” is an Old English word for “solid,” and the term “sad iron” is often used to distinguish the flat irons , used on the farm ,heated on the coal stove .Wished I had kept one for a door stopper

@ARYANTO, Yes, my Mom had one too. Those were elegant days, weren't they? Drinking tea out of a realy teacup, with a delicate little biscuit on a delicate little plate on the side.
You are so right @Hooked , and @ARYANTO for bringing back some memories of my Gran and afternoon tea and biscuits or coffee with condensed milk and “soetkoekies” both served on the trolley. It just seemed to taste better in that way.
I also have to own up that I’ve turned into a Neanderthal as it’s usually a mug now with a rusk balanced on the edge though.
Give me a cup now and I don’t know what to do with the saucer!
Ag pleez Daddy won't you take us to the drive-in ...
Coleman lanterns.
Anybody else had one of these in the 80's?
Remember to set the alarm ... 1970's

And who went to the Carlton Centre ice rink ? (JHB CBD)
Must have been around the late eighties
Loved it when they dimmed the lights and played good music
Had my own skates and thought I was quite a good skater at the time. Lol
