First Train Set

The GR wants to get Erbie a train set for his first birthday. We found this one online at jesters.com 20 pieces and all for the outrageous price of £7.99.



Have a look in Hamleys you can get the same one for five times the price.

And a battery operated engine. £9.99. Also available at Hamleys for £30. It comes with an alarming warning that children should not swallow small magnets as they can affect internal organs.

Other nonsense
