Yo-yo's

Amongst the stuff I brought back from my parents at the weekend were two yo-yo's. A Fanta one and a Sprite one and I'm sure I had the Coca-cola one at some point too!

I don't know if anyone else remembers when Coca-cola brought out these yo-yo's for you to collect and they came with a leaflet which I still have with 8 spinner tricks to do.

I remember there being quite a craze on school breaks with everyone showing off what they could do or swapping yo-yo's for their collection.

Not sure if I can do any of the tricks now which included;
1. The Spin
2. Walking the dog
3. The break-away.
4. Over the falls.
5. Three-leaf clover.
6. Around the corner.
7. Rocking the baby.
8. Loop-the-loop.

Maybe I should get practising again!!
