.... You could fill balloons with methan, and light them on fire!....

... Sorry, had to do it.

There's a fine line between genius and insanity.

i've been looking at the qualatex balloons, but they're so damn expensive. i don't wanna spend a fortune on things which are just gonna end up being burst and binned!

Qualatex really are one of the only brands that you can count on.

Last christmas, im my stocking I recieved some modelling baloons which obvioulsy my mother had seen, thought of me and bought them.
I cried becuase they were not qualatex.
It took me 4 baloons to make one of these for my mums boyfriend on christmas morning, whereas it would have taken me one if I had qualatex.

Trust me... they are well worth the money. ubbrollsmile

I'm only new and learning as I go by teaching myself... and I bought qualatex balloons. Sure, they're that bit more expensive, but as the others have said.. they don't burst as easily. I think I've had one actually burst on me and thats only because I put too much air in (even then, took ages for it to burst). Unless you want something which will burst halfway through tying it up... you may need to pay the larger price

yups - qualatex are the way, expensive but worth it, especially if you are just learning - it will end up costing you more in balloons as you will bust most of them if you go with cheaper ones (not to mention that it will be anoying for you) pay for the quality smile

What if I should fall right through the centre of the Earth and come out the other side where people walk upside-down?!
