  • help needed

    grandson coming up to his third birthday has been playing with his cousins remote controlled cars, he love's them. Also took him down to the boating lake and he loved the remote controlled boats there, with his dad being on the lifeboat we would like to get him a remote controlled lifeboat (he loves everything lifeboat) thought it would be easy simply use Google, only ones I have found are rather expensive. Aparently not alot of places have them in because part of each sale has to go to the RNLI, you would think shops would do that, not likely they won't stock them, they want all the money for themselves. Looking for one about £20-£25, off on the serach again.
