Random musings and general banter.

And now one of telly shopping land's great wonders:

The hanging rubbish bin of babble-on (and on).

Very clever this, says Peter. You hook the bin over a cupboard door and use the curved chopping boards to catch the mess. No more problems with flat wooden boards. Oh yeah I mean the trouble I've had with them has driven me to tears at times. You get half way to the kitchen bin then you sneeze and all the cabbage clippings go all over the floor. A major problem this, says Pete.

I think they should rename the channel Innovation World for all the world-beating ideas it comes up with.

The 4 in 1 walking stick

The easily sinkable kayak (Titanic brand)

The fake candles and flowers (no mess no smell no point)

The gargoyle garden ornaments

The heritage-free luxury watches

The Tamsy tent dresses

Need I go on?

Actually I think I've just described the concept behind Grot, the shop chain invented by Reggie Perrin which sold utterly useless products. Such as a square hoop and hideous tasting wine for folk you don't like.

And now the Buddha for the bathroom. As recommended by Peter "maharishi" Simon.

I've heard of Buddha in Suburbia but this is ridiculous.

You couldn't make it up.

He’s on with Alex now selling Pillows.

No, think it's a fashion influencer trip, sorry meant family trip, so she can model all the latest tents, sunglasses & hats for her instagram posts.

Hope she wasn't flying this morning as airports were affected with the software issue. Although I'm sure she wouldn't mention it on her socials.

Buddha sm should not be put in bathroomS - it considered very disrespectful for buddists to do this

He needs to Fuk, Luk and Sau off.

Bastion of integrity, It's not abrasive.


Of course they are, that's why they have warnings on the box saying not suitable for certain surfaces, although you don't mention that.

'congratulations to all who got their batteries' (and paid an extra tenner over the price on amazon)

Can you imagine a Hour on Holby, Hollyoaks and Rachel Stevens

Now I'm not saying Mike is talking out of his arse but he direct comparison of the Honeywell air purifier for £229.99 ideal price of £89.99 and this on for £69.00

Air purifier, Comparison of £220 IW £89.

Of course no mention of Amazon at £79 and Aircon Direct at £69.

Beaten to the punch by postmanpat.

he also compared a single Gx pillow for £50 on the gx site but didnt mention that was for a jumbo pillow.
