I'll take it from the lack of replies, that they are just a gimmick then, Think I'll keep my money in my pocket. Thanks to all 60 of you who didn't bother replying.

It's not that people don't bother replying, I have to read a post to know if it is a subject I can answer or even have an opinion on, I read most posts and quite a lot are out of my depth so please don't take it as an insult that people read but don't answer, sometimes we just don't know. No offence has been intended!

Bfergie's right, I read your post but know nothing, so, unusually, I kept quiet (not always the case) . No offence intended.

Perhaps markb is the sort of guy who wants 60 replies saying "don't know". And sarcasm isn't the most effective way for a newcomer to the forum to endear himself to the regulars on here, who are very helpful when asked things they do know about!

'I'll huff and I'll puff' could have meant anything. If I'd known it was about powerbreathes then I probably wouldn't have viewed it as I would have known staright off that I wouldn't have been able to contribute.

markb - if you get one, please report back. If they are any good I would consider buying one.

WOW, funny how a bit of sarcasm gets things moving, I do apologise for my sarcasm tho' didn't mean to offend.
still if you look at the threads not one of you own a powerbreath, that must say something? sort of answers my question

No sarcasm needed young man, its just that Mrs Cid is getting on a bit. She can't hold her breath like she used to. So I thought if she got her old mush round a powerbreath and worked her lungs out a bit, it might pay dividends for me too. You know, dentures in the glass and bob's your uncle.
