Tesco Sell Single Use TVs for £400!
It seems Tesco are now viewing 40' TVs are impulse items, given this display one the first aisle of their giant Extra store. What better reason to buy a new TV than the fact that it's 'ideal for watching the royal wedding on'...? Stop the world, I want to get off now...

Another New Cocktail Invented By Yours Truly!
For all the people out there who aren't big gin fans (how could anyone not love Blackwoods...?), this is for you. Take a whisky glass, add a shot of vodka, a shot of lime, squeeze in a quarter of lime and lace the rim with its juice, top with (Slimline) tonic. There you have a refreshing drink that takes the best of vodka, lime and soda and merges it with the best of gin and tonic. The name of this sure-fire hit for the summer...? VLT (as in vodka, lime & tonic, sort of...)

I Want You, I Don't Know If I Need You...
Let's hope there's a but coming and she'd "...die to find out".
One things for sure, she's sweet like drinking
One things for sure, she's sweet like drinking
NB: Had to change it from "sweet like a chica cherry cola" as it was confusing too many people. Either way Savage Garden still rock!

15 Years Ago We Lost The Boys From London
In a pre-internet proliferation age, the death of two icons sadly happened just over 15 years ago, on 21st January 1996, and sadly the world did not seem to know. This morning I learnt of the passing of Edem Ephraim and Dennis Fuller, better known as the London Boys, due to a drunk driver trying to overtake on the wrong side of the road in the Austrian Alps. This Requiem is for you both. Never gonna get enough... In fact your album was the first album I ever bought (as a record obviously). Let's hear about London Nights one more time...

Fast Car = No Respect For Emergency Services?
I've got a fast car, I'm gonna drive it anywhere... But I'm wondering if this person actually respects the Emergency Services? Or is he just pro-European and wants us to use 112?

A Healthy, Sugar-Free 'Juice' Drink
For some reason Irn Bru is deciding to advertise in Scotland. England (through the Super League) I get, but Scotland? They've also decided to re-brand their Diet version to Sugar-Free, probably to make it clear it is the healthier option. Shame then that they use Scottish slang describing it as a 'can of juice'. What exactly did you juice (verb) to get that liquid, girders..? No wonder Scotland has health issues when the slang terms are being endorsed through advertising.

The Best Design Of Plastic Water Bottles
Simply take the usefulness of expensive aluminium containers and in turn make a very cool cap for a one litre bottle. Well done Grupo Damm, the guys behind Estrella lager!

How I Decorate The Table For A Chinese Takeaway
I know what you are thinking, but the only person I am trying to impress tonight is me! So no change there then... Still, it beats putting older roses straight in the bin!

Fire Safety Can Be Practical Too
Are you frustrated with a large fire resistant door that auto-closes and a sign reading 'Fire Door Keep Closed' that just doesn't look cool when opened and potentially puts your customers at risk? Then why not wedge it open with a matching fire extinguisher? Remember, fire kills but subverting fire saftey can look stylish...
