I can't tell you how much I loved it and remember it with so much fondness. I used it straight away and many times afterwards. I searched high and low for 1 when my daughter was younger. I just LOVED the SPIRO-matic - thanks for posting this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10795310017260905887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-5677730971473861232021-08-28T17:09:29.047+01:002021-08-28T17:09:29.047+01:00great stuff Gef, glad you liked using it.
