    re question on Night Vision Goggles....

    I bought these last Xmas for my 12 yr old son (he had asked for them the previous year and they couldn't be found for love or money)

    Sadly my son suggested I returned them and got a refund - they were rubbish. Deeply disappointing.

    You might as well buy one of those torches on a headband!

    You win some you lose some and even at HB prices they ain't worth the money!

    My son had some for his birthday last year and yeah, they are pretty useless - at HB's price though they're good novelty value I suppose.

    In Cannock today I bought a pair of Panama Jack sunglasses for £1.99 - not sure what the selling price usually is but they're really nice and feel strong.
