    10 items for 74 euro OP. That is 7.40 an item.

    Whats with the dairy milk? Should have sent Colleens or Emeralds or Murray Mints.

    I bought an LED facemask off some crowd on Bookface. Few different options, but all work via audio so for example, the lips will move when you talk. It also has some built in commands to do different things on the mask when you say certain words, like saying "No" will make a red X appear, "Yes" for a green tick and a few others.

    But I think it's racist. It came from China (with about 7 weeks delivery so anything on it should be well dead by the time I received it). It's supposed to show a yellow man waving (keep in mind, it's all LED circles so "man" is a strong word), but it doesn't. However, if I say "Herro" it does...

    This shyte, but it's somewhat entertaining and different enough. I get good responses to it.

    I'm also a bastard for cheap tech gadgets that inevitably break after a few uses...

    The Chinese must be delighted they got us hooked on this kind of tat. Helping them take over the world in a big way

    Paddy Hat and beard. (Made in China no doubt)
    How long before a fish ends up wearing that?
