Bongos

I don't think I've said much about J-cub's love of drumming, but ever since he learnt that smacking his hand against something made a noise, he's been on a mission to become the greatest drummer since the Roland 808.

He's got an electronic drum from Mothercare, and a cheapy drum we picked up from an NCT Nearly New sale, and a plethora of percussion instruments. We thought it was time for him to take the next step up, and I tracked down a set of bongos on ebay, which I won for the shocking price of £3.60.

They arrived this morning, and after a confusing moment where the box and packaging were far more exciting than the contents, he's been playing them ever since. I say playing, but he seems to prefer sitting on them and surveying his domain.

Still, at £3.60, I don't really care what he uses them for, as long as he's happy. And it's hilarious to watch.
