Their love has survived the test of time. But can it survive fate? It is America 1772 – it is only a few years before the war of independence and the colony seethes with unrest. As battle lines are drawn up and loyalties tested no one is safe in this new country. Jamie Fraser receives a message from Governor Josiah Martin. He wants Jamie’s help to keep the backcountry safe for King and Crown. But Jamie knows what’s to come. His wife Claire has travelled back from the twentieth century and she knows what will happen to those loyal to the King of England. Exile or death. Neither prospect appeals to Jamie. But Claire knows something else. From her own time she’s read an article dated 1776 reporting the destruction by fire of their home on Fraser’s Ridge and the death of those who live there. Jamie hopes Claire is wrong for once about the future. But only time will tell…

Good old Dad and his good old Dad’s car. As solid and dependable as the man himself if a little less balding Dad’s car was almost a member of the family whisking you to exciting days out or just to visit boring relatives in distant parts of the country to the chant of ‘are we nearly there yet?’ Like the man behind the wheel Dad’s car made you feel safe and secure because it was as reassuring and sensible as he was. Maybe in an idle moment Dad dreamt of driving something rakish and fast just like in idle moments he dreamt that your Mum was Twiggy but the demands of family life meant soft tops hard suspension and anything even remotely sporty were off the cards. Even anything less than four doors would have been wildly hedonistic. But although the family car may not have been the very essence of rock ‘n’ roll Dad was proud of it. Spanning the 1950s to the ’80s this is a celebration of the heyday of the Dad car. From much loved family workhorses like the Ford Cortina and Vauxhall Viva to the rakish excitement and playground kudos of the Rover 3500 and Citroen CX all the great Dad cars are here. Reflecting a time before people carriers and lifestyle off roaders when the nearest thing to an airbag was hiding behind your fat brother this is a celebration of simple honest cars that were as flawed and as loveable as your Dad himself.

Be careful what you wish for… ; ; Once upon a time there was a fairy godmother named Desiderata who had a good heart a wise head and poor planning skills; which unforunately left the Princess Emberella in the care of her other (not quite so good and wise) godmother when Death came for Desiderata. So now it’s up to Magrat Garlick Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg to hop on broomsticks and make for far-distant Genua to ensure the servant girl doesn’t marry the Prince. ; ; But the road to Genua is bumpy and along the way the trio of witches encounters the occasional vampire werewolf and falling house (well this is a fairy tale after all). The trouble really begins once these reluctant foster-godmothers arrive in Genua and must outwit their power-hungry counterpart who’ll stop at nothing to achieve a proper “happy ending” even if it means destroying a kingdom!

We’ve seen some key ring pens in our time (and who hasn’t?) but they tend to be tiny Lilliputian affairs that are almost impossible to write legibly with. Not so the Telescopic Pen. The designers have kept the handy pocket size of most key ring pens and added a cunning twist – the pen is telescopic. No larger than a door key when closed the pen really is quite discreet but once unscrewed from your key ring and fully extended you’ll have a full sized pen at your disposal. Surrounded by pens and keyboards at work you know for sure that once you’re out and about pens are like hens’ teeth. Now you’ll always have a pen at your fingertips that you won’t have ‘left in your other coat/bag/trousers’ and that won’t get half inched by some wandering scribe. With the Telescopic Pen you’ll always be prepared no matter where you are.

There is nothing absolutely nothing half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats. Until you drop your keys overboard then it all becomes a bit of a chore. Next time attach the Waterbuoy and within seconds of hitting the water environmentally friendly gas will automatically inflate the reinforced rubber balloon to save your keys from being lost in the gloomy depths. You don’t have to stop at keys either – clip the Waterbuoy to any item weighing up to 1kg and it will happily float on the water for 24 hours. If you’re going to drop something in the river chances are you’ll do it in the dark (it’s the law of the sod – or something like that) which is why the crafty inventors have included a blinking LED light in just the right place to make your floating gizmo visible from up to 250m away. This makes the Waterbuoy the world’s first and only miniature floatation device that’s visible at night. So if you simply love messing about on the river or fancy a life on the ocean waves make sure you keep plenty of these handy gadgets onboard (they’re one use only – but hopefully you’ll have learnt your lesson the first few times you drop your keys overboard). The next time your keys go overboard you won’t have to waste money on a submarine if you’ve remembered to attach the Waterbuoy.
