Weird sensation of the day....

[Moby-Dick]

I'm having a bit of a tidy up and found a fairly large amount of large cell bubble wrap. I need to bin it , but figured there not need for an entire big bag full of the stuff , after all its mostly air.

The first few sheets I popped by hand , which was its usual childish fun , but it wasn't getting the job done.... Plan B

Fold the sheets so they are about layers deep and walk up and down them barefoot

it took about 10 minutes to do them all , and my feet feel very strange. I recommend it to anyone who is bored and having a surplus of bubble wrap

[SiM]

Weirdo... or should I say wierdo

[Moby-Dick]

This is a fantastically cheap resource for the Children I work with, we gets loads of the stuff when new equipment is delivered, i'll roll it out, outside and the Children love popping it, they'll use their whole bodies to roll on it, some stamp some hop some use their fingers I also like those plastic air cushions used to pack things, they come on big rolls, we see who can make the loudest pop, it's great fun smaller pieces are great for using with paint, paint it and then press it onto paper... makes brilliant shapes tickles me think the toy it came with cost £100's of pounds, and yet they're more interested in the bubblewrap Jon gets rolls and rolls of it for us from the Landrover Garage for a couple of quid donation into their charity box

^ hehe that's what the nursery that me friend sends her 4 year old to do. It's brilliant.

You could always paint it red and sell it as "tension sheets"

Most of it came from the dreamcast Jon sent me

Haha glad the bubblewrap gave you as much pleasure as the dreamcast is, I remember him packing it up, he reckons you can never have too much to wrapping when your packing stuf up

Next time forget consoles and just get him to send you a load up

I'll save mine for when I'll need some disposible sleeping bags making up

[TheAnimus]

i don't know why, but the nation you need a sleeping bag, which you intend to dispose of afterwards...... I'm sure there are laws against this.

[Lee H]

Simple, I wrap stuff with the bubble wrap and then take it to the festivals.

Once unpacked, I use the bubble-wrap as a disposible sleeping bag which gets binned on the way out.

I got sick of washing them everytime I got back etc and devised this lazyman's routine

[chicken]

Doesn't bubblewrap make for a kinda sweaty sleepingbag though since it stops all airflow?
