Unicycling as similar to riding a bicycle as surfing is to carpet bowls. If your sense of balance is more finely tuned than your sense of self-preservation then this is for you. Don’t buy this if you’re scared of a challenge though it’s great fun having a go. The really tricky bit is keeping the six watermelons in the air without your wheel slipping off the tightrope. Unicycling is not easy but then neither is origami and whilst paper folding is very creative and all it doesn’t get the adrenalin pumping or indeed your legs. Half as useful as a bicycle and twice as entertaining it’s a full sized cycle and comes boxed requiring some very elementary assembly. It has a 20inch wheel with aluminium rim a fully adjustable (and very comfy) seat and anti-slip pedals – though they’ll be the least of your problems. The handlebars are of course missing but we gather that’s the point of the whole thing.

With a pair like this on the case evil had better watch out! “So you won’t keep anything from me again?” He put his hand to his chest. “Cross my heart and hope to die.” “Okay then. Though you don’t actually have a heart ” she said. “I know.” “And technically you’ve already died.” “I know that too.” “Just so we’re clear.” Stephanie’s uncle Gordon is a writer of horror fiction. But when he dies and leaves her his estate Stephanie learns that while he may have written horror it certainly wasn’t fiction.

When all hell breaks loose it’s lucky for Skulduggery that he’s already dead. Though he’s about to discover that being a skeleton doesn’t stop you from being tortured if the torturer is determined enough. And if there’s anything Skulduggery hates it’s torture!Will evil win the day? Will Stephanie and Skulduggery stop bickering long enough to stop it? One thing’s for sure: evil won’t know what’s hit it.

Cloth-Cat and Dog-End will raise a smile every time dishes need to be dried, which is probably a first. They have kind of classic, innocent 1950’s-ness about them, until you realise that of course you’re sticking a towel up an animals bum! They always get a reaction, but are well enough designed to slip in to the kitchen environment subtley.

It doesn’t take long, does it? One moment Bond is wielding some achingly cool gadget, and before you know it it’s on the IWOOT website. Q’s furious of course. The Spy Video Watch is literally indistinguishable from a normal (and actually quite swanky) watch, but the crucial difference is that you can craftily record video and take photos thanks to the almost-invisible camera hidden in the number ‘2’ of the watch face. In fact, all the features on this genius little watch are extremely well-hidden. There’s a microphone and an LED indicator on there somewhere too, but they’re sufficiently unnoticeable for you to get on with the very important business of mucking about. The video quality is pretty amazing for such a tiny camera, and you’ll have no-end of fun trying to catch people up to no good (if that’s what you like doing). The stills are excellent too, so any Top Secret documents you might happen upon won’t go un-snapped (though it’s just as handy if you see Neville from accounts picking his nose and need some blackmail material? the choice is yours). The rechargeable lithium-ion battery is good for about 2 hours continuous sleuthing (with a full charge of 2-3 hours). It’s got a whopping 2GB capacity as well, so you don’t have to worry about clogging it up with pictures of your upside-down face, and getting your vids and pics off the watch and onto your computer is easy. Just plug the included USB cable into a port and treat it in the same way you would any other digital camera – your recordings will then be ready to upload to YouTube or send to whichever client you’re doing some private work for. Because it’s such a convincing watch as well (it tells the time and everything!), you’ll be able to snap and film all you like – and not a soul will know you’re doing it.
