Breakfast can be boring, so change the guard and bring a touch of military precision to the table with this egg-citing Soldier Egg-Cup and Toast Cutter Set. Designed to resemble the Bearskin wearing soldiers at Horse guards parade this little Egg Cup looks smart in his bright red tunic. He will stand to attention the whole time you are eating your egg, and will even comes with a little red spoon that he will hold onto when you aren’t using it. Of course a nice runny egg wouldn’t be the same without some bread soldiers, so also included is a cutter to ensure that rather than plain old strips of bread your soldiers are all turned out out properly on parade in full dress uniform.
Price : £ 5.95

Product Description
The Boom Dock is no lightweight dock, this is a serious box of power…. It lurks on your shelf, teasing you, tempting you with its empty iPod/iPhone dock; “plug it in!” It goads…. You oblige, turn it up to 60 and BOOM! You would be forgiven for wondering if it is nuclear powered. It is not brute force though, it delivers sound to you with military precision. We have used revolutionary aluminium cones for the satellite drivers which give a massive dynamic range close to 90dB. For the non geeks out there (most of you!) good comparisons are; CDs which have a maximum range of 96dB (which is rarely used) and the vinyl rock and pop albums from the 60’s and 70’s which only had about 30dB!
The Boom Dock is a 2.1 system, it has a low Q down-firing 5.25″ subwoofer which gives a super-sharp, super deep and super punchy bass response that you can feel right in your chest. It is like being at the epicentre of a small earthquake. If this is too much for you though, you have the option of adjusting the bass and treble levels to suit your own preferences.
At the back, you will find a rare sighting for this day in age – a pair of proper phono inputs! You can connect other audio visual equipment to the Boom Dock, including your TV (as long as it has an audio output). The magnets are shielded so you can site it very close to screens without damaging them.
You can tune the Boom Dock into regular FM or AM radio stations and enjoy them with the full sound that it produces.
Trouble waking up in the morning? Simply select a rousing tune on your iPod, crank the volume to max and set the alarm on the Boom Dock for your regular wake up time…. BOOM! try and sleep though it, we dare you!
The Boom Dock will accept any iPod (except shuffle) and your iPhone/3G/3GS (in flight mode).
