(Thanx to 'coisas do arco da velha')
A Sad Story:
When I was about 5 I got from Santa a Fireball XL5 rocket that you shot up into the air with a catapult and it would separate in two and float down to earth on parachutes.
At least that was what should have happened!
Xmas morning and I went up to the hills behind where I lived with my Dad and shot my rocket up into the air only to see one half of it parachute down a couple of hundred feet into the quarry, where of course we were not allowed to go.
One launch that was all I got (bugger!)
NB: Trivia fans - the closing song is performed by Don Spencer who is Russell Crowe's father-in-law!
