Grandmotherly treasure
Rooting around in my nan's house when I was a kid I found a box of ace old games, including a Stylophone, with a picture of Rolf Harris on the box and everything.
It had the sheet music to "Jake the Peg" in it.

Just in case you don't know the wonder of the mighty Stylophone: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubreq_Stylophone

Quite possibly the most horrific instrument known to mankind. And perfect for pissing off narky grandads.

Damn, I want it!
You don't still have it, do you?...

Sadly not :(
According to the Wikipedia entry they started to make it again though at some point. But I bet it's the Rolf Harris-ness that gets your cogs turning isn't it, you rude man.

I bet someone has it E-bay.....

There is one!
And it's less than $10! And it comes with the record! And it has Rolf!

Has another six days to go on the auction, though...

Or you could just buy a new one
from the gadget shop (or whatever it is called these days)

Saw one only the other day in Bluewater.

They now include an MP3 line in, so you can Stylophone over your cool tunes!
