It looks like someone took a Generation-style low whistle and stuck a cheap Yamaha plastic alto recorder head on the top.

It is said that a camel is a horse designed by a consultant.

Perhaps this is an Irish Whistle designed by Scotsman?

It's OK. It's OK. I'm 4/5 Irish and a "Fifth of Scotch"

But it's definitely the whistle you want if you need to give someone a ruddy great thwack.

Another fine example of French engineering. Redwolf, it does look like a recorder head stuck on a whistle tube. I don't think either community will fall in love with this one any time soon. However, while we all seem to agree it isn't the cutest pig in the litter, what does it sound like?

Ever seen a potato bug, Jerusalem beetle, "child of the earth" insect thingy?

It reminded me of that.

So would some be tempted to use this whistle as a . . . backscratcher?

At least now when the French insult British food we'll have our comeback line ready.
