Ping Pong Merrily on High

i would put them in an egg carton and poke holes with hot poker

Unless the presenter is about 10 feet tall, that's a small hardback, nota big one. But maybe the ping pong balls are teeny-tiny, it's all amatter of scale, I guess.

Book looks intriguing and, anyway, if I'm seeing an advert, I like whenwhen I know that's what happening rather than any stealthyunder-the-radar 'ooh we're so alternative and clever, but we're stillselling to you' junk.

It's a plug, it says it's a plug. Live with it.

I understand about the book plug but at least we now know about it - Ithink it sounds like a fab book.  Love the idea too - greatalternative to overly festive Christmas lights.

I love this - looks so easy I'm going to have a go at making themtonight! 

Using a G-clamp is likely to dent the balls, but you wouldn't want a drill bit in your hand... "Modelling-clay" might be a better way of holding these?
(The book-plug spoils this, it's not very subtle at all.)
