Sometimes time just doesnt do what its supposed to. Seconds drag by, hours flash past & the whole continuum seems out to trip your head up. This Backwards clock turns back time while it continues to march conventionally forward, which can do your brain in on a Sunday morning. Basically everything on this clock is reversed, the hands rotate the wrong way, & the numbers go anti-clockwise
- why did they make this clock? To save the universe of course, because for every action their needs to be an equal & opposite re-action or everything goes to pot. Remarkably after an amazingly short period of time you get very used to telling the time backwards, so used to it in fact that a clock thats the right way round starts to look decidedly odd. The Backwards clock, its just a little bit crazy, great fun, & confuses the heck out of visitors.
...

Ever wondered what would happen if you could actually turn back time? Well, wonder no more thanks to our quirky Backwards Clock. Designed to perfectly mirror a ‘proper’ clock but actually running in reverse, this clever gadget is set to truly confuse & bemuse. Just pop in an AA battery (not supplied) hang it up on the wall & let the bewilderment begin. The only question left to ask is what will you do with all that extra time you suddenly have? We think an extra hour in bed would go down well. ...

Emit eht stahw? Or more sensibly, Whats the time? is a question not quite so easily answered by this rather daft but undoubtedly fun & different watch. As its name implies, the Backwards Watch is one thats popped into this dimension from a mirrored reality. Ok perhaps its name doesnt imply exactly that, but it is backwards, & not in a Deliverence or Norfolk kind of a way. The face is printed completely the wrong way round (but not with flipped numbers, that would be too much of a headache), & the hands rotate anti-clockwise. So the hands might look as though theyre saying its ten to two, but the numbers let you know its actually ten past ten. Confused? Youll be suprised how quickly your brain get used to the whole time going backwards thing, & its great fun watching friends staring at your watch with the baffled expression of a puppy doing a Rubiks cube. ...

There are times in your life when the only solution is cake – & warm gooey cake at that! As cake lovers ourselves we’ve searched long & hard to find a way of getting that sugary fix quickly (and without a PJ clad trip to the shop) so we were delighted to find Bakedin Mug & Cake Mix sets. The idea is simple but we promise the results will be completely delicious. Just choose a mug with either Chocolate Brownie or Chocolate Cookie mix (or perhaps choose both if it’s been an epically awful day!), add a drop of milk & a spoon of melted butter & let your microwave do the rest. In a matter of seconds, you’ll be sitting down with a scrummy treat as the worries of the day fade away in a blur of chocolatey niceness. & the best bit – once you’re done you’ve still got a fab mug ready for hot chocolate or another ‘medicinal’ pick me up. Allergy information: The Brownie Mix contains wheat flour & the Cookie Mix contains soya. Both mixes are prepared in a factory that handles milk, wheat, soya & nuts. ...

We thought we’d seen it all when it comes to fun, quirky lamps – well we did until the Balloon Lamp arrived in the office. Perfectly at home in any room our colour changing Balloon Lamp is a must have. Not only does it beautifully mirror a ‘real’ balloon (complete with the hard to tie knot!), it also phases through a stunning colour pallet & means that you can stick with your favourite too. We think that the USB (Universal Serial Bus) powered Balloon Lamp is a fantastic solution to easing the stresses & strains of the modern daily grind, & that the relaxing light show will help you float to a place of tranquillity. But if tranquillity isn’t your bag then there’s no denying it’s a real talking point! ...
