If, between cat videos and Twitter arguments, you've glanced out the window recently, you may have noticed that the outside world has a strange sort of brightness about it right now. We're told that this phenomenon is called 'British Summer Time' - an annual thing that tends to start around the same time as Wrestlemania and end just before Halloween.
Our sources indicated that many people use this so-called 'Summer' as an excuse to go outside and get drunk with their friends. This is news to us, but just in case you're planning to dust the Dorito powder off your hands and venture outdoors this summer, here are a few things that seem like they might come in handy:
Our boffins have observed that lots of people enjoy lying on the grass during summertime, perhaps with a book or a cocktail of some sort. If you intend to join them, we recommend using this comfortable suede wedge - after all, the grass is teeming with insects and parasites, and this brightly-coloured inflatable will go at least some way to protecting you from them. It's good for your posture, too.
Many see summertime as a prime opportunity to take photos with their friends (probably because of the improved lighting). This extendable stick will increase the range of your camera, allowing you to fit more of your friends into the shot. Or, y'know, more empty space.
We mentioned drinking, and while most are content to drink their beer from bottles or cans, we at Gadget Inspector know of a far more efficient way: the
beer bong! This snazzy red number has a 2.5 pint capacity, and the incredible rate at which liquid flows through the device will allow you to finish your beer quickly and get back indoors where you belong.
Now that it's late February and the New Year diet has folded like a house of cards, let's talk treats. We'll eat more or less anything here at Gadget Inspector HQ - when it comes to sugary snacks, we're not at all fussy.
That said, we are particularly partial to a chocolate chip cookie or two, particularly because we've got such a cool place to keep them:
This, friends, is a Darth Vader Cookie Jar, and it's exactly as awesome in the flesh as it looks in that photo. We've actually found ourselves popping to Tesco for another packet of Marylands just so we've got something to put in the Vader jar. It's not healthy, but we don't care - a cookie jar that cool deserves to be used!
Of course, there's more than one perk to keeping your cookies in Darth Vader's helmet. We've found that, since we started using the Vader jar, cases of cookie theft are way down; our precious cookies used to 'go missing' all the time, but who on Earth is brave enough to filch biscuits from the scariest, strangliest Sith Lord of all time? Nobody at the Gadget Inspector office, that's for sure.
We're certain that, by now, you're itching for a Vader jar of your very own. And that's the
really good news: you can
buy one right now! We've got plenty of Star Wars cookie jars to go around, and we've even knocked £10 off the price - Vader is now just £19.99, giving you a bit of extra money to save for sweet, sweet cookies!
With a mere 149 days to go until the Minions movie is released (149 days, you guys!), excitement is running high here at Gadget Inspector HQ. So high, in fact, that we've decided to indulge you all in a minion-themed deal to make the wait for the movie that little bit more bearable.
