Helter Skelter...

The 'Helter-Skelter' brings back fond memories for me visiting the fairground on the sea front close to where I lived.

'Helter-Skelter' is an amusement ride with a slide built in a spiral around a high tower. Users climb up inside the tower and slide down the outside, usually on a mat or hessian (burlap) sack. Typically, the ride will be of wooden construction and, in the case of fairground versions, designed to be disassembled to facilitate transportation between sites.

The term 'Helter-Skelter' was first recorded in the United Kingdom at Hull Fair in October 1905. Other recorded names for the slide include: Canadian slide, alpine glide, lighthouse slip, slipping the slip, and glacier slip.

This build has used the full 250 brick allowance!

Enjoy the ride....
