You can get yourself a kitten and play "Chase the string", or "Shred the curtains", or "Climb the walls", or "Eat the curious insect" with it!

Get a hamster. Then you won't need a shredder.

Chz - I can confidently confirm that DG has already played that game (with the baby sister of the present Ginger Familiar). He didn't like it one bit.

In the interests of animal welfare, could I please suggest no animals?

Get a Bedlam Cube. Solitary pastime that won't affect your eyesight or palm hairiness quotient.
And/or a couple of CDs. LCD Soundsystem's album is stonking.

Alternatively, buy yourself a descant or treble recorder (respectively £13 and £18 from musicroom.com) and a book to learn from and discover that the recorder is not in fact a screechy horror of an instrument played only by junior school kids but in fact a venerable and sometimes beautiful instrument beloved of many a Baroque composer. Handel was a particular fan.
This allows you to stretch your creative musical muscles without enormous financial outlay and provides and instrument that is actually easy to play for beginners.

Chess - I imagine that that would suit you. However, as you had nobody to take to the theatre with you then the same problem may present itself here. (Maybe you could play against us instead ...) So alternatively, may I suggest a guitar.

Astro Wars, a chunky hand-held game manufactured by Grandstand circa 1981 - it's Galaxians-inspired but with loads of extras. They go on Ebay for about twenty quid, more if the battery cover's intact. I'd love one again. (oh yeah, and four size C batteries will cover the rest of the budget).

A handheld computer chess game? Or if you are up in Blackpool there is still a 10p Space Invaders machine on the prom - you could have HOURS of entertainment there.

Bugger. Lyle beat me to it.
I got my bloke a Bedlam Cube for his birthday last Wednesday. It's been driving him bonkers ever since.
This is a very good thing.
I've had a go myself. I have to get one for myself now. They're ace.

And less frustrating than "petals round the rose", pix?

I'd hope not. I have to get my revenge somehow.

Buy £40-worth of chalk and play a lot of hopscotch.
