       I think I would prefer a city bike that transforms into a garden gnone or some item of garden or street furniture.

       Might I suggest this bottle be shaped like a flask?

       cool, but I only want the snow globe bike helmet - can't you post that as an idea on its own?
sappho, Aug 09 2002
  

       You can have it for the same price and we'll throw in the flask-cycle free.

indicates - that snow globe bike helmet looks like a winner to me too. <hypnotyically>Might make the top ten over time - think of it - your name no longer automatically associated with Pork...</hypnotyically>

       as long as it's filled with helium so that it's not too heavy. Not too much helium though, otherwise you might be on a flying bike. Just enough to balance the weight of the perspex and snow and little figurines.

       <still lucid>Just goes to show how much I know about what'll sell.</still lucid>
And,

!sappho!

there's a lot of hydrogen in the helmet's H2O.
FarmerJohn, Aug 09 2002
  

       helium is not the same as hydrogen?
h2o weighs 1kg per litre. poor cyclist's neck will be sore from holding head up.
and what's with all the stars and exclamations, people. I'm quite shy.
sappho, Aug 09 2002
  

       You're shy but want to ride around with a blizzard on your noggin? Ok, no more jokes, we'll put a bubble of helium in the helmet.

You'll let her put it on, then?
