      Superstar microphone from B&M. Pound shop batteries are lasting really well. One of these each and two packs of pound shop batteries should provide a couple of weeks entertainment....unless anything else happens in the meantime.

      It is a law of physics that battery life is directly proportional to how irritating the toy is.
