JOANNA Hall was looking forward to her first run on roller skates.
The five-year-old is pictured left getting ready for action with her friend, Joanna Sutton, at the Old Gaol sports centre in Abingdon in 1980. However, joy quickly turned to tears as she lost her balance and took a tumble at the first turn, as more experienced skaters whizzed past her.
She soon cheered up and decided to try something a little safer – trampolining.
