        I HATE those things. We gave our daughter one (Legolas from LOTR) some years ago and she would move it around the house, placing it strategically to scare us when we came into a room. I still remember opening the door to the WC and...I almost didn’t need to use it after that...!

        Apologies if I destroyed The Spear, there. I didn't take English Literature at school.
