I intended to search out some of the more unusual presents for different members of the family, however, when browsing all the various pages I soon realised that, in a lot of cases because of the diversity of products offered, it would probably be better to point you in the right direction and leave the final choice up to you. So I have decided to do a mixture. In some instances I have selected a particular item but in others I have selected a whole site which I feel may have something of interest.
If you are seeking something a little different that perhaps this CD-Audio Goon Show Compendium will fit the bill. This title presents twelve remastered episodes of the legendary series that includes one Special - plus bonus material. "The Goon Show" changed the face of British comedy and now, for the first time, this box set collection presents the episodes in chronological order as they were scheduled to be broadcast. This volume includes: "Emperor of the Universe", "Wings over Dagenham", "The Rent Collectors", "Shifting Sands", "The Moon Show", "The Mysterious Punch-up-the-Conker", "Round the World in Eighty Days", "Africa Ship Canal", "III Met by Goonlight", "The Missing Boa Constrictor", "The Histories of Pliny the Elder" and the Special episode, "The Reason Why". There are some rare archive bonus items, including alternate sequences of "The Goon Show" and "It's That Man Again". Two illustrated booklets tell the story of the show's development with reference to original archive paperwork, plus the history of the recordings themselves. Remastered using new material and the latest technology to give the best possible sound quality, these recordings will appeal to all collectors of "The Goon Show". HOW ABOUT A GIFT THAT CHANGES LIVES
Rather than waste money buying something that the recipients already have, or don't really want, why not put your cash to better use and buy something that really will transform the lives of poor people overseas. You can choose from a wide range of gifts including trees, seeds of life, tools, donkeys and ploughs, goats, alpacas, ducks, batteries, clean tap - the list goes on, with prices starting at just £11. Having selected and ordered your item, a gift pack is sent to your recipient (to say what you have purchased on their behalf) and poor communities get the best present ever.
There have been some real dodgy cars manufactured and sold in years gone by. This book contains hundreds of pictures of these unreliable, rusty, hideous-looking and just plain mad machines, as well as facts about them. At just £6.77 (free P&P) this would make an ideal, yet original, stocking filler.
