    I'm putting in some playground equipment for our boys. Anyway, as usual the kids keep hassling you. So I had the second chap come along tonight to quote on excavating and levelling. My little bloke keeps asking if this is the "slide" man. I said I had no money so my 3 year old went to his room and bought out his piggy bank. He said "Here Daddy" you can have this. I was so proud he made that offer.

    Mind you now I have to buy this bloody thing.

    Very nice.
    Not every kid would respond like that.
    Very cool to see your boy understands family.

    That's a nice set up. A table in the shade for the adults.

    We had one very like that in a sand pit next door but the council removed it. The insurance was too much.

    My daughter is 14 months old and I have been thinking of putting something like this up. That table sealed the deal. Now I need to find out if this set up is available in the states.

    It's an American company Stephen. ;) You actually have a lot more options. Some of the models I liked aren't available over here.

    Here's the main link.

    Ask Brettski how much it is before you get too excited. It makes restoring a 308 look like a reasonable proposition :)

    Good to see the young fella has the right idea with money. That's a hard but essential thing to teach them IMO.

    Hopefully your little one likes grass before November. ;) Should be in for my little ones 2nd birthday all going well.

    That was a good LOL for me this morning. It also reminded me of my friends mother who purchased an H2. When she got it home she found it didn't fit in the garage. The next day there were contractors there to raise the roof.

    as you guys would say, crikey? 10k (not sure if that'd spelled correctly) I already went on their site and ordered a catalog. There is a dealer less than 30 miles from me.

    Sorry baby, daddy needs a 30k service, you get a used bald tire, picnic table and a ripped up blue trap strung between the trees for shade. awwwwwww.
