Wake in Fright – Film ink

Posted by Notcot on Jan 10, 2013 in Cult Film
Wake in Fright - Film ink

Wake In Fright was first published in 1961 and the film version, Outback, starring Donald Pleasance was released in 1971. Both the book and the film have achieved a cult status as the Australian answer to US and UK novels and films of 1960s youthful alienation. Wake In Fright is the gruelling story of a young Australian schoolteacher on his way back from the outback to Sydney and civilisation…when things start to go wrong. He finds himself stuck overnight in Bundanyabba (‘the Yabba’)- a rough outback mining town. The heat and the misery are described in painful detail as this one evening changes the course of John Grant’s life for ever…all on the flip of a coin. An ill-advised and drink-fuelled visit to a gambling den leaves Grant broke and he realizes he has no way of escaping the Yubba. He descends into a cycle of hangovers, fumbling sexual encounters and increasing self-loathing as he becomes more and more immersed in the grotesque and surreal nightmare that his life has become…revealing the baser side of his own nature as well as the harshness of life in the Australian outback. Grotesque but absolutely compelling, this has become a cult read.

Cogito ergo… meeeooow Dr Ivor Kitten has compiled 9 quick and easy tests that make up the How Cunning Is Your Cat? test. It’s the sure fire way of finding out if your moggy is a creature of comfort or a homicidal maniac. Hopefully it’ll be the former and your cat will vent its inherent frustration at the stupidity of humans on the Catnip mouse included in the box. Or maybe you’ll wake up one morning tied to its scratching post while it steals your credit cards and takes over your identity pausing only to force feed you Kitty Numbkins Tuna Treats. Whilst there’s no point worrying about what might happen it’s wise to take the precaution of putting Tiddles to the test just so you can prepare yourself. Features: A series of 9 tests to determine just how cunning your cat really is Tests include: testing your moggy’s curiosity body image and intelligence A free catnip mouse has been included to give Tibbs a bit of encouragement Suitable for cats Size: 23.5 x 15 x 4cm

Stealth Speed Boat

Posted by Notcot on Sep 20, 2012 in Gadgets
Stealth Speed Boat

It may be Stealth in name but it’s far from stealth in nature as this twin motor speed boat screams along at an astonishing 30kmh! This big sexy black beast is 73cm long and all power. Unlike the petrol driven pro-RC models that take hours of tinkering with for just a few moments of enjoyment the Stealth Speed Boat will dash round your local pond at ludicrous speeds for up to half an hour from a single charge – no doubt terrorising all and sundry and leaving all other RCs (and quite a few ducks) floundering pathetically in its wake. The twin motors make steering amazingly responsive (it’ll turn on a dime) and a clever safety feature ensures that the props won’t spin when they’re out of the water – so you won’t be picking your fingers out of the pond. We’ve already said how fast it is but have we really got that across? Because even though we knew it was fast we had no idea what ‘really fast’ actually looked like until we saw this thing go. Heck if it had wings it would have taken off and the local hot shot ducks were depressed enough already without giving them even more of an inferiority complex. Of course aside from shaming the local wildfowl there was the sweet enjoyment of watching the RC nuts with their £100 boats turning green with envy and sulking over their thermoses.
