My nice shiny new Laughing Whistle has this very minute arrived! Woohoo!! 
…oh… D’oh! I’m stuck in the office and can’t play it 'til I get home tonight… 
That’s the telescoping one, right?
check out the thread, gary, the links by Q, you know you need it.
Tell your office mates that you need to get something from your car, or you left a mysterious package at the bus stop and you have to do it right now 
Congrats and have fun!

(If you don’t, hope you write me!

“A picture paints a thousand words” they say, so here’s how I feel about my new Laughing Whistle:
It’s…my…Prrrecioussssssss!!!
gary you never told me!! you are one seriously handsome bloke. 
I know! And y’know, since I got that whistle, I think emm fancies me!! Double woohoo!!! At last! A whistle that makes me sound good, and makes me more attractive to the opposite gender!
Be careful where you tread while dancing about with your new whistle Gary, don’t go falling in any volcanoes! (They have them in Swindon, right?)
No, but we do have something much much worse. We have one of these:
Falling into that would spell the end for all our preciouses. And I jest not, you need more than a pointy hat and a stick to figure out how to navigate 'round that lot on a Sunday morning, never mind during rush hour! 
Wow! Swindon looks nearly as scary as Lunnon.
Wow, Gary, you’re better looking than I thought! That flyaway/almost lack of hair suits you.
Never get stuck on the inside of a roundabout. Words of advice (since I don’t want to be accused of not being helpful! ). I’m really not sure why this is important advice to heed, but my grandmother swore that it was something we needed to hear each and every time we drove in the roundabout near her house in Trenton, NJ.
It looks like a design for a super-colossal cyclotron. Imagine the potential for collisions.
And! You won’t believe this, I’m still single!!!
Actually no imagination is needed, especially when Swindon FC are playing at home. The traffic is bad at the best of times, but when all 20 of Swindon’s football fans are trying to cross the road to get to the ground, it is catastrophe…
I think these were actually designed with input from the medical community - they like getting paid to treat people’s raised bloodpressure, migraine headaches, inner ear trouble, and stress related illness… (ugh!)
Of course I do Gary!
(yesss Preciousssss. We lets him think so then we gets our hands on the laughing one…verrry tricksy. verrry sneaksy.)
