Encountering overinflated balloons in public

Re: Encountering overinflated balloons in public

I had a friend growing up who thought that it was a waste of a balloon to not blow it as tight as possible.

I remember one time in particular. We both had to blow balloons up for my gran at christmas time and he (my friend) kept accidentally over inflating them til they burst trying to get them as tight as possible. He also took the ones I blew up and added a few extra breaths to get mine extra big and tight too. Most of the balloons that survived his inflating technique, spontaneously burst through the day anyway as they were ridiculously tight. I had to blow up a whole new lot for my gran the following day to replace them Haha.

what a good friend! And quite right - nothing worse than an underinflated balloon!
