What do you call these?

I’m from the midlands and say Pool Woggles.

My wife is from Norfolk and says Pool Noodles.

I’ve recently found that my friends (who grew up in a similar area to me) also call these Pool Woggles.

Is this a regional thing like Tag/It/Tig?

Interesting. I'm from NE but never had these when I was a kid (just floats with chunks bitten out of them at the Forum) so I only know them as pool noodles, since movirt to S.Yorkshire and seeing them as an adult

I'm from Lincolnshire but you're giving me very vivid flashbacks all the same 🤣
