Roll Up, Roll Up

A thoroughly desperate Monday morning was brightened most considerably this week, when I met a good friend on the way to work. I was presented with a fabulous gift as a souvenir from a european holiday, Although the item in question actually hailed from Manchester Airport, it did enjoy a cruise along the Danube and visited as far afield as Vienna and Budapest, before finding its way home to sunny Lancashire. The perfect gift for me, this neat little clockwork Fridge Rover is merely inches long and is fitted with powerful nagenets,

The simplest and smallest things being so often the most satisfying, this wonderful little rover adheres firmly to the fridge door and takes off, radar whirling, in a gravity defying trundle across the vast naked expanse of metal. In the week that Curiosity begins its trek across the martian landscape, my Fridge Rover is busily exploring the front of my fridge freezer!

So thank you Bovril - and say NO to hard butter! :-D
