Do you remember those old style tomato shaped sauce dispensers you used to see in greasy caffs? You can probably still find them if you look hard enough. If you like the idea of a novelty dispenser to squirt your sauce from, then take a look at the comical Condiment Gun! For big kids, little kids and anyone who fancies a bit of ketchup with their chips, you can even load this gun with brown sauce or mustard (oh, it’s ever so versatile!) and ‘bang’, your burgers won’t know what’s hit them! It’s not just about the novelty factor, oh no, don’t dismiss it until you’ve tried it. The Condiment Gun is well thought out and designed to deliver your sauce in an accurate stream (well, you don’t want to spoil your chips with too much sauce do you!) It’s yet another crazy invention you can probably live without and, I’d suggest you don’t invest in one if you’re scared of food fights. I predict that if this gun is in sight at this summer’s barbeques, the temptation to aim it at people will prove simply too strong to resist!

When it comes to tea and biscuits are you a dunker? Maybe the thought disgusts you, because you can’t stand getting to the bottom of a lovely mug of tea only to discover soggy bits of biscuit floating around! Well, if you can’t stand the mess, but harbour a secret desire to dunk, you might be interested in a little invention I saw whilst watching the One Show the other week. Following on from the invention of the ‘Dunk Mug’ which eliminates the need for a plate for your biscuits by cleverly combining a mug with a cut out section to store your biccies, they were showcasing an invention designed to prevent bits of biscuit falling into your tea while you dunk! Ok, maybe it’s taking things a little bit far, but knowing how fussy people can be, they will probably be a few people rushing out to buy one! And, remember, if you’ve ever struggled to carry a hot mug of tea and some biscuits upstairs, the Dunk Mug enables you to pop your biccies into your mug so you’ll be less likely to spill enroute. Ah, there’s nothing like a nice cup of tea!

Have you got nerves of steel? You’ll soon find out when you play Shocking Roulette. No, not Russian Roulette - that’s pure madness. Who in their right mind would risk a bullet in the head just to play a game? Shocking Roulette, on the other hand, retains the suspense and intrigue, but the worst you’ll suffer is a small electric shock. Still, you’d be surprised at how quickly grown men and women turn to jelly when they place their fingers into the electronic chambers and wait nervously to see who will receive the ‘shock’.
Players place their fingers in one of the chambers on the board, the start button is pressed and the agonising wait begins! The tension mounts as the unit beeps and the lights flash around the board, imitating the sound of the ball on a traditional roulette wheel. But, unlike the casino, the only prize in this game is the relief when you realise you’ve escaped a shock. Then you can relax and laugh at the unlucky ‘victim’. Beware, they’ll probably suggest another round and it’s only a matter of time until it’s your finger that gets a jolt. And once you’ve seen the reaction of other people as they’re shocked, the pressure builds even more, until you just want to get your turn over and done with! When the bleeping stops, the screaming starts!
You don’t need skill or dexterity to play this Shocking Roulette, you just need a large dose of courage! When we tested it in our office, some people even jumped when it wasn’t them who got the shock - absolutely hilarious! Four people can play at any one time, but you can get just as much amusement watching the apprehensive expressions on the players (or should we say potential victim’s!) faces as they anticipate a shock. This is the game that separates the men from the boys and some people just can’t handle it, pulling their finger out at the last minute before anything happens. You can point at these people and call them ‘wimps’!
Perfect for livening things up at parties or having a laugh at your local, Shocking Roulette is the game that creates a real ‘buzz’! Much more fun than the practice of drawing the short straw, it’s the ideal way to decide who gets the next round in!

It takes a lot of skill, effort and experience to produce a quality wine, so it should be savoured (something I really should try to remember!) Wine tasting is an art that allows you to experience a range of flavours. Learning how to taste wines is a straightforward adventure that will deepen your appreciation for both wines and winemakers. If you fancy yourself as a bit of a wine connoisseur and appreciate a nice bottle of red, I’ve come across just the thing to help you savour the flavour even more. You’ll be surprised at just how different your wine tastes when you move the Magic Flavour Magnetising Wine plug on to different settings. Simply attach the Magnetising Wine Plug to the neck of your bottle of red and pour. Not only does it give a whole new flavour to your wine, but it also makes pouring it much easier. Instantly smoothen the taste, reduce the tannic taste and appreciate the lingering and aroma of your wine. The Magnetising Wine Plug is the world’s first and only device to turn your VSOP brandy to closest XO (about 30 years old) taste. This clever little wine plug is able to create 8 different structures of taste, simply by altering the settings and pouring. Reds often have berry, woody and bell pepper tastes.Your initial taste gives you your first impression of the wine’s components and flavours. So how does it work? When the red wine passes through a specific magnetic field, the field instantly changes the physical state of the young wine to become a deluxe wine. There are 8 structures of taste for you to choose. Simply insert the Magnetising Plug into the open bottle of either Red wine or brandy and pour. That’s all you have to do. The change is instant as the Red wine or Brandy passes through special magnetic field. It changes the physical states of the beverages eg. surface tension, PH values, etc, but no Chemical changes take place. Now, I don’t claim to be a wine expert, but I’ve still had a lot of fun trying this little plug out!

All fans of the highly popular 80s TV show, the A-Team will find it hard to believe that the tough talking Mr T would fit in anyone’s pocket, but it’s true (well, almost!) Our latest crazy gizmo will make you feel like the big guy with a love of milk and a fear of flying is with you wherever you go. ‘I pity the fool’ who lets this great gadget pass them by!
Born Lawrence Tureaud on May 21, 1952 and raised in Chicago’s Southside ghetto, Mr T is the ultimate American entertainment icon. Famous for his Mohawk haircut, dungarees and gold medallions, it’s not just his appearance which is etched on our memories - a man of few words, when BA Baracus did speak up, he sure came out with some real gems and with Mr T in your Pocket you can amuse yourself with some authentic recorded quirky one-liners wherever you are. Just imagine the fun you can have when you go shopping in town or up to the bar to get the round in with Mr T concealed in your pocket!
If you find yourself caught up in yet another tiresome argument, you can simply press the button to give an electronic response of “Shut Up Fool”! The look on people’s faces is priceless and you can have even more fun creating some mini mixes by pressing the button in quick succession, childish we know, but then thoughts of the A-Team do make us revert to our youth!
I love it when a plan comes together!

You get up early in the morning and check your reflection in the mirror. It’s a bit of a drizzly day, so there’s not much light coming into your bathroom. You brush your hair, check your make up and leave the house to get into your car. You get to work in time for your important business meeting just as the weather is starting to brighten up and pull down the mirror in the car to apply your lipstick - aarggh! That’s when you notice the monster brows! Your eyebrows looked fine at home, so why are they suddenly sprouting out everywhere? It’s often difficult to find the right level of lighting to tidy up your eyebrows effectively and even if you do have the right light, you need the right tweezers too. Well, how about a really decent pair of tweezers that provide the light you need every time you pluck? Introducing LA-Tweeze, the illuminated tweezers that will keep your eyebrows under control wherever you are! Simple, yet ingenious, these fantastic Tweezers have a little light built-in, so if you’re late to meet your friends for lunch or in a rush to get out in the evening, you can throw them in your bag and pay a visit to the powder room at your convenience. The Illuminated Tweezers come in their own little lipstick style case, so you can find them more easily when they’re at the bottom of your handbag. If you’re out at a bar or night club there’s no need to stand at the mirror with all the other ladies, plucking your eyebrows - you can retreat to the privacy of a cubicle and you’ll still have enough light to give yourself a quick makeover. I may not be able to afford the plastic surgery to transform me into an image of perfection, but at least I can give my eyebrows an instant lift with LA-Tweeze!
