SEVENTIES ORANGE ROCKET LAMP: COR!

 

Remember this rocket lamp?

I saw this pic online.

My Mum and Dad had one on the staircase landing. I thought it would blast-off one day!

I remember the orange plastic was a scratchy coarse material.

Did your folks have one readers?

    1. Hope its a good memory Mish. I had a major accident near our rocket lamp, one which made my eyes water for weeks! It involved rushing for Dr.Who on telly, a loo, a zip and something soft. In my agony I knocked over the rocket lamp! It was a mess and I was hospitalised but I still like the rocket lamp!

  2. Ouch!
    Nothing so dramatic for me. However I did used to fly my Major Matt Mason, using his zip wire back pack, around the lamp, which was on our living room cocktail cabinet/sideboard thing.
