It was all hands to the bands at Morgan’s Deli at the start of the school holidays as Tilly and Daniel caught up with friends Romy and Aine while mums Des and Wendy were next door at Wonderlab having hair and nails done.
The impromptu get together turned into a Loom Band workshop session as Tilly had come armed with her mega organised carry case of hundreds of the brightly coloured elastic bands which have become one of the top ten best selling toys of all time.
Loom Bands make convenient portable holiday entertainment and appeal to both sexes and all ages. 1D’s Harry Styles and even the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been spotted wearing them.
Plus of course Tilly, Romy, Aine and Daniel.

The Purple Hedgehog stock Loom Band kits and refill bags of mixed, glitter, neon and tie dye bands.
” We now have the charms to add to the bracelets’ say Purple Hedgehog owner Sally Clarke, “the glitter and stripey ones are the most popular. We have sold out of the travel containers but are getting more in, hopefully next week. They have seven compartments so bands can be organised by colour and are a handy size for carrying on holiday.”
