I remember really wanting a Matt Mason Space Station, but that was way way out of my pocket money league, so I made one out of lolly sticks and cardboard - I bet your Moon Buggy turned out a lot better than my Space Station. :D SCOOPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17481423869059986451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-64943172135143372512016-07-26T08:52:56.403+01:002016-07-26T08:52:56.403+01:00Ahhh, the large Space X moon buggy!

Later, I stumped up the courage (and the pocket money) to go back and buy it, only to find it -GONE!<br /><br />That loss scarred my childhood, but it did inspire me to make a moon buggy of my own with wheels made from spray-can caps and aluminium strips cut from a drink can.<br /><br />In fact a lot of my childhood creativity stemmed from not being able to afford the toys I wanted, so all up it was probably good for me in the long run!Lewis P morleyhttps://www.facebook.com/lewis.p.morleynoreply@blogger.com
