I think they make people look a bit special.

Took me a few reads to get it. Sadly, it's because people cba to check for errors, blaming autocorrect (shoulda got an Android) and so I thought you meant to write "at" not "it" and were simply a numbnuts rather than being clever.

Yes - I assumed it was a typo of "Not at Disney".

Probably works better in Arbroath rather than Portsmouth.

"The Envelope of Protection" - is that a bit like the "Paper Bag of Destruction"?

I'm a fan of them when combined with a go pro, it resulted in some of the best pics from an Australian/NZ holiday - haven't used it since mind and I wouldn't take one into a football ground.

I am amazed that people need it pointing out to them that using one on a ride is a bad idea.
