OK, so after much deliberation after seeing these guys on the Gadget Show a while ago, I’ve decided I’d like a Pleo – a robotic dinosaur supposedly capable of evolving the longer you have one. There are also plans to develop different personalities to download onto the little guys, as well as tricks you can teach them etc. I’m thinking after the initial novelty has worn off a bit, Paul and I can set about hacking the little dude to within an inch of his life . I reckon there’s plenty of fun to be had!

Tis just a wee shame he costs £200….however,  Pleo owners in the Staters have made little collars and jumpers for them, so the expense is worth it for the cuteness factor!
