Loom bands

[mjheathcote]

Had to be done!

 

[Andyk]

I have one in the Italian flag colour s as well...Made by my son...

 

[mjheathcote]

My daughter does little else at the moment, they have just been banned at her school!

 

[drewf]

World-wide craze - the little French girl next door makes hundreds of them.

 

[Contigo]

Yup I've been made loads. Just bought them 3000 for 2.90 so in the good books!

 

[alfatwo]

But what do they do?

Dave

 

[Grinzzz]

They're an economy enabler.

 

[conaero]

God I thought it was just in our household. Freya has made one that is 20 feet long and I am regularly unblocking the Hoover!

 

[alfatwo]

That stuff's ok at Glastonbury, but you can't wear tat like that every day!

Dave

 

[Contigo]

You wear anything when told to in a household of three girls!

Not even married...so don't need to get involed in silly stuff like that!

I do...... In fact you look odd if you haven't got one on these days.......My son made if for me and expects it worn.

 

[drewf]

I'm with alfatwo, not for me I'm afraid.

I read somewhere that the top 20 toys on Amazon are all loom band related at the moment...

Phil, 3 girls here too, even the goldfish is female. Just me and the cat batting for the boys and he's on his way out too.

3 girls, 4 if you include the Mrs & 5 if you include the dog! No hope...

Indeed and the wife gets at me if I talk cars too much or want the odd drink fuelled car banter session with the boys! There is no pleasing them

 

[outrun]

My kids want to go to a loom band making class at the weekend. WTF?

Don't get it!

 

[drewf]

It's the Victorian age all over again - send the kids to the weaving sheds???

 

[RSM Masser]

PTL - mine are all in their 20's, so I am no longer subjected to these crazes - I do remember the other one with 4 long plastic strings being made into some kind of knotted rope - the kids made hundreds and they ended up on everything from key rings to the zips on my bike leathers.
They did make one once out of several other knotted ropes - it was like a cosh!
