    I bought a pale lilac suede leather holder in Home Bargains for 79p! They also had pale green. Not exactly wacky, but nicer than the navy blue ones that are usually the only ones available. They also fit the new size BB, which is slighhtly larger than before due to the tamper proof casing. Our old (navy!) BB holder didn't fit the new badges in, so this one is ideal.

    I shall watch this with interest. My sister bought me the boring navy one for christmas (she claims it has silver plated lock :think: ). When I opened it, I thought "oh, so I've officially become an old git then?? "

    I would dearly like something more snazzy (to match the bright purple laptop bag I bought recently).
    I try not to get too stressed out on the forum. I won't argue, i'll just leave a thread if you don't like what I say. :)

    poundland and poundshops are doing them.

    but my niggle is that my clock is getting a bit battered on the dial, so even in a case this would not protect it as this is the bit you need to move

    I don't have a BB let alone a cover but if I did, I would want a piggy one!
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.
