At the village fete or school fete, where there would be old-fashioned sideshows like a tombola, whack-a-mole, coconut shy, etc. my father always used to run the china-smashing stall. He had a tall rank of shelving and would line it with donated old cups, plates and glassware. I think you would pay 20p for three balls, and you stood behind the line and threw them as hard as you could. He would clear up the mess and re-stack any holes in the display. He would often have the biggest takings of any of the sideshows. |
