Swingball Pro review an ideal Christmas gift!

Do you remember playing Swing ball as a child in your garden in the summer?. Remember how exciting it was , playi
ng it all summer long , the constant flow of friends in your garden wanting to play. Then the problems set in as the certain swing balls of old had a metal tube that you put in to ground, then slotted the swing ball into. Trouble was it was alright during the summ
er when one of your parents was mowing the lawn, the problem came when you couldn't play it in the winter and then the grass covered up the metal tube where you slotted the swing ball into. And come the next summer basically you were stuffed as you couldn't find the metal tube to slot the swingball in to. And try as you might swing ball was never the same as you tried in vain to drive it into the lawn with the tube which in essence supported the swingball ball. So your summer w

as lost and you had to find something less interesting to do instead.

This is where the Swingball Pro set comes in as its portable ! no more lost time playing and no more hunting for the hole in your lawn to popo the Swingball into!.

Just because it's Winter its no excuse not to get outside and play

see my post on outdoor play. So this Swingball Pro set makes an ideal Christmas present as well.

This version of the game is portable, with all the parts fitting into the base unit which can then be carried using the integral handle. It can be used virtually anywhere making it ideal for taking to the park, to the beach or for playing in the garden. Assembly is simple and the base unit just needs filling with water or sand to stabilise the unit. So perhaps your local Youth club could play this in a hall making sure that there is plenty of room when you play.

Swingball Pro is available from here: http://www.swingball.co.uk/product-range.php and costs £39.99 and why not check out their other great products.

Asthma Attack a silent killer part 1

I am having to write this in several parts as I don't wish to bore you ...

Last Thursday I had a asthma attack and ended up in A & E an experience I do not wish to repeat I have one life and wish to keep it for long as possible and die due to stupidity at my own hands.

I have had asthma since a child really but it just got dismissed really , it wasn't till my late teens that I got taken seriously. I had inhalers and was pretty much alright though horses have and always well set me off. Now as I was young and naive and say you do you think that you know best when you are young. Though I got older I discarded my inhalers thinking I knew better. Of course I had asthma attack but I just flung myself out of the window , well not all of me of course just my head and that seemed to do the trick. But my asthma got worse over the years I ended up in Skegness A & E on a nebuliser as I had booked us a stop on yes you guessed it a horse farm. Add in a few more hopistal free years and a couple more asthma attacks and you are up to speed, frightening isn't it my life in just a few short sentences ! The next instalment will be of course the asthma attack , there may be some political observations of of course lots of praise for the NHS and some criticisms too.
