    Remember it well!

    I had a gold spinner - thought I was the mutts :) Entered a competition held at Eldon Square where you had to do a trick to receive one. Think I 'walked the dog' or something equally easy!


    Fm that kids talented! In time with the music - mint.

    Was it black?

    The had a few.. you would probably match each one with a slide at Wet n Wild actually. I think I had the hurricane. Also had a one with loads of lights on that I payed £6 for. It was a lot of money to me back then :p

    I'm apparently a yo-yo fad behind you fellas.

    I'm with the peeps who had soft drink related ones.

    That makes me feel well old tbh.

    Would of kept on but the strings became impossible to buy.
