Did anyone out there have a Gresham Flyer tricycle with a boot on the back?

Christ, I had one of those, moving along to an Austin A40 peddle car with a boot!

Flying Saucers, Sherbet Dabs and Blackjacks.  I used to eat these at the funfair on Wimbledon common where my Grandmother and Grandfather lived.  My grandfarther was a ranger on the common, living in various cottages then finally living out their days in the windmill.

The Crooked Billet and Fox and Hounds pubs were special as I could go inside because of my grand parents!

Happy days   :D    :D
