Christmas advice

Post by Snowfire »

For those of you with young children or grandchildren who have received battery operated toys for Christmas, be sure to use the very cheap, poundshop batteries . They last as long as an average persons patience.

Ive been listening to a stomping, growling, snarling T. Rex for several hours. The whole episode would make a great advert for the more expensive quality batteries that we naively bought.

Commiserations to you Sir, we had that with a "Mr Icicle" snowman toy that would not stop singing a pile of drivel as the young grandkids pressed the button over and over again
