Yep, that was the beast. Hated it every time, did about 2 tests per annum.

I feel a shudder coming on!
No adjustment....get whatever hole it felt like delivering into your finger...often bruised or unable to staunch the blood flow....glad those days are behind us.

LOL - YES! That's my first ever finger pricker! XD Thanks! I think I'll save that picture on my computer when I get home so I can show people! Razz

I can see why people hated it but I was genuinely really upset when it broke! I guess I was really uncomfortable with change because I did get put on to one of those more modern looking prickers...

Love the name of it... halarious!
