The cycloc is a simple solution to bike storage, instead of leaving the families bikes learnt all around the garage walls you can simply pick them up and hang them like a picture (a very muddy picture in my case).

The cycloc looks a bit like a green bucket and it’s ingeniousness is in its simplicity, only taking 3 screws to mount and capable of holding nearly any style of bike.

It’s available in the UK from Cycloc for under 50UKP (found via Stuff).

This probably isn’t one for us who live in the northern hemisphere but if I lived in a country that had the weather for an outdoor pool that would be usable for more than a month a year I’d have to get me one of these, the Aqua Pub.

When older relatives visit the Aqua Pub looks just like a conventional patio dining table with attached stools. However once the sun comes out and the oldies have retired inside you can through the patio set in the pool and you have your own ready made floating bar. It seats six though I guess you’ll have to spread the weight evenly if you don’t want the fattest most muscular person getting all the drinks.

You can get further info at the Aqua Pub site but be warned you may want to turn your speakers off.

I managed to get through university without getting past chapter 1 of “Cooking for Blokes” because I couldn’t be bothered to go and buy the extra kitchen utensils necessary to make anything from chapter 2 onwards.

A few years later, I found a dietician who spent a year learning to cook – and I married her. Recently though, it seems to me that all our money goes into the kitchen, one way or another, so I’ve decided I want some of the action!

We knew that this was a “security device” that had to appear as a coolest gadgets feature, the only problem was; what should we write? We thought; “Words fail us; the photo says it all!” might do the job, but being the professionals that we are, we’ve dug deep and written a few comments to paint a picture in your mind:

This is a novel lighting idea, light shades made out of lingerie, AKA Tramp Lamps.

Each Tramp Lamp is hand-made by dipping a piece of lingerie into a curing solution so that it stiffens and maintains the shape of a worn under-garment. A light is then placed inside the lingerie to create the unusual lighting effect. As lights go it’d certainly a talking point, just hope they don’t make a male Y-front version.
