and here's one for you...
I recall back in the fifties while attending a (school holiday) play-centre, I slid down a steel slippery dip and sliced my finger tip open on the steel plate base. The supervising teacher just put a band aid on it and that was that. A few days later, it showed signs of infection and I just had it cleaned up and stitched at the casualty in the local hospital and went back to playing. No litigation in those days. You just had to suck it up or you missed out on another day's fun and laughter. Oh and remember those Roman-Rings. Boy did they hurt when they hit you on the head if you weren't quick enough!
