Possibly the best gift for wine lovers ever invented. Whether you’re taking a bottle round to dinner at a friend’s house or giving a good bottle to someone as a present this is probably the most ingenious puzzle solving challenge ever made. Will the lucky recipient be able to free the bottle from the puzzle? Instructions: simply remove the puzzle from the box replace the card bottle with your best bottle of plonk. Then follow the included instruction sheet to correctly place your bottle in the puzzle place it back in the box and hand it to the lucky recipient. At first sight it appears laughably simple to open but first impressions are deceptive. It’s hugely entertaining watching the recipient go from cocky to puzzled to deeply frustrated – especially whilst everyone else is chipping in with their advice… No loop that bit over there slip that toggle round the whatsit etc. The recipient will feel they deserve every last drop if they do finally manage to crack it. If they don’t aside from you crowing you can put them out of their misery as it does come with release instructions. All Bottled Up is an ingenious gift idea for that ‘perfect host’ and fits standard wine herb vinegar and olive oil bottles (for non-booze drinkers). It’s a great party piece and can be used again and again unless someone gets so frustrated they bring out the power tools. (Does not include bottle!) Features: ‘All Bottled Up’ puzzle Works with standard wine herb vinegar olive oil and pop bottles Includes wooden puzzle pieces linking cord and instructions Does not include wine! Includes instructions Please Note: Colours may vary. Size: Assorted puzzle pieces: largest 14.5 x 10 x 10cm smallest 3 x 2 x 2cm
Price : £ 9.99

In this the age of communication you need never be far from home what with email telephones and the like. Yet technology becomes rather sterile and impersonal compared with the comforting warmth of this Sweet Talking Bear. There’s nothing like hearing a loved one’s comforting voice when they are far away and this teddy bear goes some way to making up for the lack of their presence (unless of course your loved one is less than 30cm high fluffy and has a voice recorder hidden inside them in which case it will go a long way). Simply pre-record your personal message and the ones you leave behind will have a mini fluffy replacement that will console your family with the sound of your voice. Make sure you don’t stay away for too long though as you may find that within a matter of weeks your wife or girlfriend would rather go to bed with this snuggly bear than you (husbands and boyfriends may take longer to sway). Comforting and microwaveable this teddy is perfect for children and grown-ups alike when that special someone is far far away.
