araird, I agree with boredsurfin, excellent piece!
I didn't realise that bakelite was also used for artificial ski slopes, I associate it with pre WW2 radio sets!

Just what every Merseyside, Teeside, Tyneside, Laganside, Foyleside, Clydeside, Humberside & Valleys punter wanted to hear "AND she enjoyed skiing"
