The Latest Craze

The whole loom band craze has passed me by and it was only this summer, whilst visiting the UK, that I noticed more and more kids and adults wearing and/or making them.

This week I received a starter pack in my box of delights which prompted me to give it a go! Quite therapeutic all things considered.

I'm always amazed the way crazes catch on and sweep the nation. Clackers, Cat's Cradle, French Skipping, Rubik's Cube, Tamogotchi, Pogs, Pokemon and Silly Bandz to name just a few!

It is surely a great calamity for a human being to have no obsessions.
