Chair-O-Planes

Nottingham's Market Square is converted into a beach each summer, the seaside comes to the heart of Nottingham.

We took Alfie and Willow today and had a lovely morning on the "city beach".

As with many seaside resorts, you have a funfair.

These are chair-o-planes, flying high in the city centre.

"I want a Go" proclaimed Alfie

"When you are 'older' "I told him !!!

[Suzanne]

Phil, 'When you are older' is one of those avoidance answers! Would you seriously go on that even when he is older? It would add years to me!

[Mags]

Great dramatic capture! It makes me dizzy just thinking about being on that ride.

[Carole Sandford]

Aah but he’s fearless now….
Might change his mind when he got up there.
I’m sure there’s lots of fun to be had at the Market Square Seaside.

[Casablanca]

Ha ha, definitely! Too young for those dizzy heights.

[Zilli~]

Wow, Nottingham seems like a fun city….

[Renee Salamon]

I’m giddy just looking up!

[Peter Dulis]

great image against that sky

[Phil Howcroft]

@ankers70 good point , I think by the time Alfie is old enough to go on it , it won't be cool for his grandparents to go on the ride with him

[Corinne C]

Oh my! this is not for me!
A great capture of this metallic spider among classical buildings.

[Kathy A]

Now that looks like fun!

[Issi Bannerman]

Fabulous image!

[Christina]

Fabulous pov

[Dione Giorgio]

Alfie is growing up fast and it's not easy to decide to have a ride on this. As for me, you will never see me getting on one of them. But Max would jump on an occasion like this.

[Judith Johnson]

A very atmospheric sky and image

[Philippa R]

Ooooohhhh no, I don't do heights! But lovely capture!

[Kerry McCarthy]

Wonderful pov to convince me that this is a ride I would never take! :)

[Hazel]

A great pov - feeling terrified already, Phil!
