Hi Jess, One chap was selling them for £5 and looking a bit fed up as the chap we bought ours from was only a few stalls away and doing a roaring trade. They are very tactile and twiddleable, I agree. I did see a few cross wives telling their husbands to stop playing with them, though, as the sound could be heard all over the NEC. Gwynne |

Miles off sheila!lol Its basically two magnets, shaped like , well, duffle coat toggles that you toss into the air, the attract each other and make a hell of a racket when they stick together- they clatter. Also they do 'tricks' - you put two/more of them on the worktop/floor and spin them and the others dive off in all dirrections, again coming back and clattering together. |
