@12frogsincoats i know what a tongue scraper is but what else comes in a kit?!
@OnionsAreToxic I never knew a scrabble turntable existed and now need one.
Lots of things I would quite like now since starting this thread.
I have also decided I’d really quite like one of those bath plank things so I can set my iPad up and watch Netflix in the bath with a glass
Of something rather than propping my phone up on the loo and having a drink slipping about on the corner of the bath, and also a bath pillow to help my hair not get wet if it’s not being washed... any recommendations?

@sadpapercourtesan what’s a smoking gun? I’ve never heard of this! I know I could google it but...

Are they new to you or replacements?
@GiantKitten - I had The Saturdays and And Then There Were Five as a child, but never the other two, so I decided to buy them because I just finished reading The Saturdays to DS (I declined to do American accents) and have always wondered how it was they were in New York in the first book and the countryside in the third book! I love them too.

Smoking gun is a little handheld device with a burner in it, and a tube attached...you fill it with woodchips, then connect the tube to a valve in a plastic cloche, and it fills with lovely smoke and smokes your fish/cheese/whatever

Long length charger cables
A potty training sticker chart
A handheld cordless hoover
Bath crayons

• Little pots for storing/ freezing baby portions of food
• Also for the same purpose as above, a thing that's like an ice cube tray with a lid but a bit deeper
