Saw these on sale in Semi-Chem the other day and asked the young girl sales assistant (checkout operator) what they did...... she told me "they spin". OK..... I was instantly interested (I love spinning things) but, before I forked out £3.99 I decided to do a little research: I'll be on their doorstep at 8am tomorrow./..... WOW that looks like serious fun

Kin ell mate a rubber band not good enough for you? Relive your youth and get a set of clackers or even a yo yo. Failing that get a gyroscope! Alternatively build a JLH or Mullard stereo valve decoder for your Russian radio!

David, I seriously hope you are tuned into my wit and don't think I will actually be queuing up outside Semi-Chem tomorrow at 8am in the morning to buy one? Nope........ I'm waiting for the LIDL "Deluxe" spinner They haven't listed it yet but those in the know reckon it will coincide with Greek week...... a "deluxe" spinner AND some deluxe taramasalata, everybody is a winner

Fidget the Midget? Noooo....... wasn't it Bridget the Midget? I would't say no if it begged me on its hands and knees. If it was lucky I may consent to her demands for my body

I am sure I have a tube of 6001 RS bearings somewhere together with some replacement bike rear mech sprokets if you fancy some DIY?

Hey - I'm all for the spinning madness - it's everywhere now. 20-odd years ago the rage here stateside were "Slammers" and some smaller plastic "coins" the kiddies would flip with those slammers. So wouldn't you know it, someone brought out a special edition slammer with OJ Simpson's photo on it, grasping a set of jail-cell bars (i.e. OJ in the slammer).

I believe pocket billiards is still fairly popular with those who can't stop fiddling.
