- This is so cute - Henry
Computer Hoover £9.99
The familiar and winsome Henry Hoover now comes in handy desk-top
size to suck up crumbs and all those bits of fluff that materialise
when no one is looking. The friendly vacuum is a perfectly miniaturised
version, easily emptied and an object of desk top envy that
would make an ideal office secret Santa gift.
- Stylophone
- £14.99
Anyone of a certain age will remember this iconic noise maker
(or pocket electronic organ as it is promoted) from the 70s
and the forerunner of personal keyboards.
Packed with resistors, oscillators and diodes, it’s played
by touching a stylus against a metal keyboard to make stylised
electronic sounds that have inspired musicians like David Bowie,
Pulp and The White Stripes. It was famously promoted by Rolf
Harris at the end of the 60s and went on to sell over three
million pieces.
This re-launch is very close to the original with volume control,
vibrating effects and now the ability to plug in to an MP3 player
and play along with the songs.
- Emu
Hand Puppet - £14.99
Emu hand puppet - this will bring tears of laughter to everyone
who sees it and gets attacked by it.Emu is starring in a brand
new TV show with Toby, son of Rod Hull who along with his feathered
friend was a regular fixture on children's TV throughout the
70s and 80s. These superb hand puppets are smaller versions
of the real thing, with the trademark yellow beak, soft blue
fur and long neck. It's large enough that most adult hands fit
in as well as children's, allowing all of Emu's expressiveness
and madcap antics to be enacted in your own home. Emu is currently
only available from Hawkin's Bazaar
Features

money can be retrieved later by removing the back. As well

- The
Original Mathmos Lava Lamp
Edward Craven-Walker was inspired to invent the Lava Lamp
after seeing an egg timer with a blob of liquid that rose
to indicate the egg was ready. After years of perfecting his
design, the Lava Lamp (or Astro Lamp as it was then known)
went on sale in 1963. It was soon exported all over the world
and became one of the most recognisable icons of the period.
Amazingly they are still manufactured in Poole, Dorset, on
the original factory site and are quite simply the best quality
you can get. Large (44cm tall), with burnished metal base
and cap, the glass lamp illuminates the purple liquid and
pinky / red 'lava' that rises in psychedelic swirling patterns.
Hypnotic and soothing, it creates a warming ambience that
makes it easy to see why it's endured for more than 45 years.
