yes Aldo ones, but that's not much use as they aren't in store at the mo.

we also get random interfernece on ours which is always good for a giggle - 'Jacinta is the mackerel ready yet' that sort of thing.

and dh arses about with them pretending to be a spy / bodyguard to the President.

why do you fancy siome?

We have the Binaton set of 4 from Argos, or rather set of 3 since dd1 dropped one in the local river! Have had them for a few years. Its ok as long as the park wardens aren't on the same waveband!

mine are rechargeable. Come with little bases that they sit in. Look like this x2!

Those ones look really swish.

Watch out for the call alert tone. Mine DC's can alert you by playing Happy Birthday, Jingle Bells etc and if you don't answer they play it again...and again...and again

Nope. We have walkie talkies for playing about with and for skiing (when we occasionally go) but for camping prefer the peace & quiet without them.

The set we have is an evaluation set we were given - but as far as I know they all work reasonably OK.
