Dodgems
Presented with the choice of either wearing the installed seatbelt, or being able to reach the pedals, a 6 year old charlius ignored the reasoning of my parent co-driver and opted for control over the electric vehicle.

All was fine during the 5 minutes or so of zooming and intentional crashing. Twas as the bell tolled to signal the end of our amusement - and I chose to relax my slight frame - that my sort-of step brother decided to coast into the back of my car and caused me to hastily introduce my face to the steering wheel, thus shattering the bone content of my nose.

I probably put a few other parents off letting their kids have a go on the dodgems after seeing the St. John's ambulance crew escort me and my claret strewn face across the concourse. I've had a fat nostril ever since.

Wear your seatbelt, kids.
