Nice shot NJ - I did actually know what it was but as I would have been the first replying post at the time, I didn't want to spoil it for others. It wasn't that long ago that these 'balloon blowing' kits were actually a prohibited import in this country and were seized by Customs at our borders. The reason was the public health risk as there had been instances of children breathing the mixture in backwards rather than blowing it forwards, hence sealing off their windpipes with the material.
The kits are allowed in now; I think because they now include a warning of some kind on the labelling. Of course that fixes everything...

:lol:
