When we first heard about a T-shirt called the T-Equaliser we half expected to see a garment depicting a moody looking Edward Woodward (youngsters, get Googling). But no, the T-Equaliser gets its name from the fact it has a whacking great graphic equaliser across its chest.

But it’s not some ironed-on picture of a classic LED equaliser (like the ones Capri drivers favoured back in the Harry Bigbutton 80s). No, this particular equaliser is of the electro luminescent variety, and it actually reacts to the music it ‘hears’. How? Well a clever little mini battery pack is hidden in a pocket just inside the hem. This powers the gleaming LEDs on the equaliser. Clever, eh!

Rendering every other ‘look at me’ T-shirt utterly obsolete, the T-Equaliser is the ultimate in clubwear.Forget about sweary shock Ts and retro schlock Ts, this eye-catching shirt is guaranteed to mesmerise fellow clubbers and pubbers as it illuminates and moves in time to the music.

We’ve noticed that the T-Equaliser goes mad to that ‘uncha-uncha-uncha’ cacophony favoured by clubbers, but it also seems to like metal and the (cranked up) theme to Father Dowling Investigates. The darker the venue and the louder the music, the better.

We donned our T-Equalisers for a night out and lost count of the people who asked where we got them. Of course, we said Firebox. And so will everyone else, so get ordering and pump up the volume before it’s too late.

Do you sometimes feel that you’re caught up in the rat race of the working world, and that you are chained to your desk and getting no-where fast? Well we’ve found the perfect way to lighten the load. Now we can’t promise to take you out of the rat race but we can throw a hamster in there to mix it up a bit.

The USB Hamster Wheel is an utter delight. Plug it into your USB port, load the software from the CD provided and get typing. As you type, the hamster gets running, spinning the hamster wheel around in the process - the faster you type, the faster he runs. This demented rodent sent shrieks of laughter around the office when we tested it, and is the ultimate parody of modern society.

Piggy Banks, whilst useful for squirreling away spare change for a rainy day, have to date been woefully inanimate and consequentially very dull. If they’re dull, where’s the fun in putting any dosh in them? The Money Monsters however are animated and fabulously daft creatures.

The eat up your notes through an electronic slot which drags your notes from your sticky paws, and gobble up coins merrily whilst flashing their cyclopian eyes and waggling their silly ears. They even give off a satisfying burp when they’ve done. As well as their wind problem, they also chatter away thanking you for feeding them in a variety of 20 random phrases - and if you don’t feed them often enough, as with children and pets, they get rather huffy. To get your money out again, you simply pop open a hatch in their backs. Of course they’re not wildly keen on you rifling about in their tummies, and will complain in a variety of ways that you’re starving them, they do after all only have your best interests at heart. These Money Monsters are what Piggy Banks (what is it with the pig thing?) should be, fun, interactive, and of course useful.

How the mighty have fallen, and in doing so had us rolling on the floor laughing our heads off. Tissue Box holders are traditionally ghastly, designed, it would appear, by people with the aesthetic sensibilities of a Halibut. We would normally condone the ritual incineration of the things, but this one is quite definitely a wonder of the world.

A generation ahead of our ever popular Tikki Tissue dispenser, the mighty Big Maoi is a monument to silliness. Standing a noble 34cm high, and hewn from the rocks of Easter Island by devoted indigenous tribes (well, moulded from hefty resin at any rate), this totemic tissue dispenser is of course ludicrous, but then why else would we have tracked it down for you? Turn your desk into a Rapanuiu landscape - it’s high time tissue dispensers came in from the cold (boom, boom).

Boing! Put some spring in your step with what’s sure to be the next big craze in something that’s just a little bit crazy. Anti-Gravity Boots are utterly daft and immensely good fun, and here at IWOOT we’ve been boinging around the office in an enthusiastic, if completely uncontrolled way. You just strap yourself into the boots, throw caution deep into the wind and bound off. The sprung bases give you an extra and somewhat alarming lift with each bound, and they make Heelys look decidedly tame and dull.

The boots themselves are adjustable to fit most shoe sizes and are best worn with trainers. You’ll go further, faster and probably higher than you thought possible, and if we weren’t all all so juvenile we’d probably have been able to use them without making six million dollar man effects. We should have them by the end of June with any luck, and we’ll let you know the second they arrive. They really do kick air!

Go jump around the park with your friends or maybe do a reenactment of the moon landing. These spring boots are tons of fun, just don’t go cheating at the olympics.

Poor old Mr P. Just as he was getting over the embarrassment of being immortalised in key ring form, he turns up in the shape of a rather cheeky table lamp. And yes, the rubberised on/off switch is exactly where you think it is! No wonder his whole head lights up when you, ahem, turn him on.

Be gentle with it!

In terms of originality, this mischievous little fella leaves most table lamps in the shade. Unless of course you’ve already seen one with a tallywhacker that doubles up as a switch. But we doubt that, because only a character as endearing as Mr P could get away with being so naughty.

Thankfully Mr P comes complete with a smart shade to hide his face (but not his appendage). Having said that, we prefer to position the shade at a jaunty angle or remove it completely so we can still see his innocent ‘what, me?’ expression. Sorry Mr P, you’re just too cute to hide.

Indeed, just like the famous Manneken Pis in Brussels, the Mr P Lamp will garner ‘oohs!’ and ‘urghs!’ in equal measure. He’ll also garner plenty of grins. He won’t, unfortunately, squirt water all over the place.

Ideal as a desktop lamp, Mr P is so versatile he can be used as a bedside light or even a floor lamp. It all depends on how badly you want to share his embarrassment. Speaking of which, you could always strip off yourself and bung a light shade over your head. But that would only shed light on your strange peccadillos.

This whimsical exhibitionist is guaranteed to illuminate any situation and add a touch of quirky humour to your home or office. Because let’s face it, there aren’t that many table lamps that possess a you-know-what. And there are even less that would have the bottle to show it - especially when it’s so dinky. Still, it’s not how big it is…
