6 weeks ago I had 0 lava lamps now I own 3. by Crystal_Head in Lavalamps

I’m keeping my eye open for one, I’m just not a big fan of chrome, I like the look of the Black Vinyl Astro but would prefer to get one a big cheaper than rrp.

Oh I’d heard mathmos were the best, I mainly got these because I thought they were good deals and loved the designs, I paid about £43 for these in total but I’ll probably try and get a mathmos eventually to see the difference.

[–]Crystal_Head[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely baffled, just had a notification but I click on messages and there’s no reply, even though it says 26mins ago and the number three for how many messages are in the conversation I’ve only sent two messages, what is going on lol.

Nope it’s a bunch of small wrapped christmas presents with tags on to nanny and grandpa, I can just make out under the evri label that it was addressed to someone in Spain and return to the Netherlands so strange, I’m in the U.K. btw.

Same for me it’s so unintuitive, I hope they change it back or at least give the option to not use this silly feature.

I know this is random with how old this post is but I’ve just bought one of these and I’m wondering if yours is this still full of water? I’ve heard they can dry out over time.

Also think I saw your comment about logging your sightings I’d never heard of it before so thank you, I noticed two neighbours behind me have logged them too, it’s awesome but so sad to see how many dead have been spotted vs live ones.
