| | An ideal weekend away to us at GGUK towers is often one filled with a lot of rain, a field which becomes a mud pit and some of the greatest bands on the planet today at one of the UK’s many music festivals. Large enough to sleep up to four people in some comfort, 5 at a squeeze and 6 if your happy to sleep on top of each other, this officially licensed VW tent measures a massive 388cm length x 182cm height meaning you don’t have to crawl around on your hands and knees just to get changed. |
Unusual gifts that they will never be expecting, completely kitsch and extremely daft.

At first glance a robot that looks like 2 fury tennis balls stuck together may not seem all that special, but this little fury wonder has just been named in the top 10 robots of all time! No the awards officials haven’t completely lost the plot. My Keepon has a huge following with hundreds upon thousands of YouTube videos, amassing over 4 million views! So how did such a simple looking robot find such fame amongst the more technologically advanced robots available on the market, the story behind it is somewhat special indeed.

The X-Dream Rocker gaming chair really is one a kind. There are average gaming chairs and then their are deluxe gaming chairs and this one truely falls into the latter. Complete with it’s own branded stand, arm and headrests the first thing to note is that it comes with breathable brush finsihed fabric, not a sweaty faux leather finish that leaves you stuck to the chair after an hour or so when game playing. This doesn’t feel like a gaming chair, it feels like a quality piece of furniture. Comfort? Tick that box immediately!

Worms, there isn’t a whole heap to like about them is there? Apparently they do some good for your garden, but we think we’d sleep easily if they all packed up their slimy belongings and left our yards for a life of extravagance travelling in a circus somewhere. We do however like one kind of worm and those are the ones that are giant in proportions and extremely tasty indeed (for those of us who like eating worms). We’re of course talking about the fantastic Giant Gummy Worms.

On the grand scale of things, there’s just not really much to enjoy about rain. Firstly it’s wet, which is slightly annoying when you’re caught out in it without an umbrella. But then umbrellas are rather dull themselves as they normally come in navy blue or black or some or some other dreary colour. Step up and take your bow Twilight Umbrella, we applaud you for making walking in the rain more entertaining than a spider on ice skates.

The Grilletto BBQ is portable, it is heated and ready to cook within 7 minutes and it is even self cleaning! When the Grilletto is in it’s folded up position, the two grills act as a chimney, essentially turning it into a blast furnace which heats the charcoal to cooking temperature within 7 minutes flat. When you’re finished cooking, you fold it back up into the same chimney shape and it burns itself out at such extreme temperatures that the heat burns all the grease and remains from the grills.

The game is one where you defend your position and man the stonghold against a swarm of aliens who have invaded earth and probably want to eat your brains. Nothing unusual or novel about a good old fashioned alien shoot em up we know, but here comes the clever bit. Through the use of augmented reality the appBlaster allows you to play the game on your iPhone and using the accelerometer of your iPhone/iPod touch, the game rotates as you do, meaning you truly enter the gaming environment.

Based on characters from iconic movies these statues are some 2 feet tall and every single one is painstakingly put together completely by hand making each and every one 100% unique, which we can only imagine takes quite a lot of time to do! Some of the pieces that these statues are put together with are immediately recognisable whilst others have been melted down or modified to recreate the visuals required. What we can guarantee you though is that you won’t be disappointed when you receive your Metal Art Warrior.

Take one look at Rovio and you cannot help but be impressed. He’s a futuristic looking WiFi controlled robot complete with webcam and mic which looks like he’s been designed by NASA and in the year 2009, this is all pretty impressive. Interestingly one of the developers from NASA actually helped to design Rovio, so expect bits to fall off him whilst in use. He has an internal “Sat Nav” which allows you to store points that he can return to at the touch of a button along with the ability to return to it’s docking bay to recharge.
