love it! the skates I had like that didn’t move fast..but I remember adjusting the size of them for each of my siblings and for myself…but I dreamed of owning a pair of white roller skates with pom poms on them.

In the UK the brand of choice was Jako – what did you have in Swiss land?

And they often had some enormous rubber stop ‘things’ attached to the front of each skate. These scared me so much I always looked for a wall to stop me.
I like the title of that book too: “Try Again, Sally”. So recognizable!
