I got one of these a couple of weeks back, was "ok" but nothing special... not really worth the 2.99 either in my opinion. Would have been massivly ****** off if I spent 15 quid on one
 I also got a lovely female one full of roe :S also if you are thinking of getting one, google for instructions, you can get much better ones else where |
