Flying Alarm Clock Gadget

Having a few extra hours sleep in the morning during the week or on the weekend is oh so relaxing, but there are consequences. You could be late for work so often you get the sack, cannot pay your mortgage, and have to live on the streets. Or you could miss your Sunday morning footy game with the lads and not score that amazing goal that makes you a legend for life.

This is why you need the brilliant flying alarm clock, that will keep you off the streets and ensure you live life to the fullest. So, what sets this alarm clock apart from your normal alarm that you can simply set the snooze time for 1 hour?

Well, for a start when the alarm goes off, the top propeller driven rotor starts to spin and flies off into the air landing on the other side of your bedroom. The alarm is like a siren and WILL wake you up. The best bit is that the siren will not stop until you retrieve the top propeller and slot it back into the alarm clock.

The Flying Alarm Clock is an ideal gift for anyone who’s incapable of getting up in the morning, or if that description applies to you then buy this as a gift to yourself and stop sleeping in and get the most out of life!

For only £17.95 you can buy it on ParamountZone.com

Ice Cube Maker – Ice Machine

admin — Sat, 02 Feb 2008 12:12:15 +0000

Googling around the net I found this awsome Ice Cube Maker a.k.a. Ice Machine and I want to present it to you:

Furious that the last person raiding the ice box forgot to fill up the ice trays? Had to suffer a warm glass of your favourite tipple? Get one of our fantastic Ice Cube Machines that requires no plumbing and put an end to domestic ice arguments….

We tested quite a few Ice maker machines before deciding to stock this model, and it won our ratings test hands down. It is better looking than any other ice maker in the UK market (in our opinion), is compact in size, and produces more ice in a shorted time period than any other.

Just plug it in, fill up it’s water compartment (up to 2.3 litres), and the ice machine will produce its first batch of ice cubes in just 12 minutes (fastest in the UK) in a choice of four different size ice cube sizes (most other models have only 3). It can also produce around 18kg of ice in 24hours which is also unbeaten in the UK for table top ice makers.

Overall, it’s the perfect party accompaniment all year round, and is ideal for home or professional use.

You can buy it from ParamountZone.com at a price arount 140.00 £
