Article Excerpt:
The Queen owns one of these, you know. Bought at the British Industries Fair in 1954, she was reported to have dubbed it “amusing”. Presumably she couldn’t wait to set it off walking down the Grand Staircase at Buckingham Palace. Rumour has it that when, in 1982, Michael Fagin broke into the Queen’s bedroom and unburdened all his mental problems on her, she kept him occupied by delivering a physics lecture on compression wave principles illustrated with a Slinky.
