    😂 worst mistake ever. I "accidentally" gave all the toot toot cars a bath so now even changing the batteries doesn't help.

    There's only one set of batteries I bother replacing and it's nothing to do with the children's toys :-O

    ok, I just snorted rather embarrassingly reading this. My other half looked at me like I was insane!

    You need an electric one rather than a battery one. That way it just sits in its base, charging, till you need it first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Always fully charged and good to go.

    I assume you were referring to your battery toothbrush?

    My tv remote has been telling since before Christmas that it needs new batteries. I still haven't put new batteries in and it's still working. I think it's lying to me
