Have to say we love gadgets - have everything from an ironing board that pops out of a kitchen drawer to a shower that interupts your radio or ipod tune to plug you into a call and a jacuzzi with voice activated lighting - anyone got any cool ones they want to share with us xxx |

I bought paul a radio scanner a good few years ago for crimbo .... he used it for the rally safety channel when he used to do that. It was in the days before digital mobiles and we found out that it would lock onto mobile phone calls ... oh the things we heard |
