Silver bottom and top and orange and green oil bits. Very relaxing - except when betting which bit gets to the top first.

I have several

Some vintage Mathmos ones, and even some wall lamp ones! I don't think me having them makes them cool though

A great man once said 'I don't follow fashion- that would be a joke'...just buy the bloody lamp and bollocks to the world- i've been wearing combat type trousers that long they've been in and out of fashion about 3 times...probably happen another couple of times too

A house, a very big house in the country

There's still one in my old bedroom back at my mothers.

My children use it as a nightlight.

I've still got the one I got for Christmas back in the late 90's (which was when they made a comeback from the 70's!), it's on my computer desk and I still always switch it on when I'm gaming
