@kilan also curious!

@kilan i think it was just on line. The outdoor toy centre seems to ring a bell it was about £70. 00 and she zooms down it it’s a great slide

---

@kilan we have a bar at the top and we let the kids play at the bottom. It’s been a good buy.

@marble thanks I’ll have a look. Need one to go from the tree house my partner has just built.  

---

@marble do you slide down it after a drink in the bar?  

---

@kilan very tempting! A few did and I have them a telling off!
