I have the industrial sort on a headband (a bit like an Alice band) and have the same problem, the swimmers' ones work a lot better for me. I bought a pink nose clip (as synchronized swimmers wear) at the same time, although it's an interesting feeling I'd rather smell the rubber 😊
I perhaps should point out that the bong is just a push-fit into the mask, it can be removed in a fraction of a second. The mask also has a internal drinking tube that's been more of an irritation than anything so far...I can't even see how it's intended to work, you must have to use a tube or straw.
Quote:Culmor's costuming is certainly inspirational. I wish I had his balls. (!)
The only costume I've ever worn (briefly) in public is this
and as Ra pointed out at the time it's quite vanilla.
I went to Telford Expo intending to wear my Harley and GLaDOS costumes but having laid HQ out on the hotel bed I went from nervous to butterflies to feeling sick, it didn't happen.
But as Mycroft once said 'Courage is by far the kindest word for stupidity'.
