    What a spiffing wiz Dave. You could make it with a screw top to hide my Gin bottle inside.

    I found the picture by performing a Google search using 'Bomb bottle'. They are available from Amazon.co.uk but they are pricey. There are some cheaper ones on eBay.

    There is another sort which may be purchased from the USA but the postage is a killer.

    I have just been officially forbidden from buying this by SWMBO ... Even if it would decorate the 'man cave' as she calls our attic nicely! Maybe I will have better luck persuading her with a fake one / alcoholic one instead!!!
