Yeah, i want to get one of them - just got a bargain little pump from ebay (for my bag) but i think
one of them for home is the solution!
I dont want to spend massive amounts - which one would u go for?

Either a Jo Blow or a Silca, us die hards use Silca pumps but a lot of people do not get on
with them, the Jo Blow like the one on ebay is largely regarded as the easiest to use and very
high quality.

Sorry about what ?

So, i had a quick nip up to h*lfrauds and saw a joeblow sport pump (yellow) for £29.99.
the last one on display - asked if they had anymore, he said not, i said there is a valve missing,
look- he said yeah ok, how about £19.99 paid for and got!!
Best thing is, the valve that was missing was for inflating footballs etc. so all in all i got a
corkin deal - £29.99 on wiggle too!
