Many of the supposedly portable iPhone chargers on the market are anything but. More often than not they’re chunky and cumbersome to use and lend your beloved iPhone the weight and heft of the average house brick. Not so the MiLi Power Skin. This slinky and subtle charger is stylish enough but crucially is exceptionally light and unobtrusive. It’s no more distracting than most iPhone covers or cases and will stop it from running out of battery power at inopportune moments. Compatible with both iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS the Power Skin unclips at the top so you can slip your phone onto the connector and get charging when you’re on the move. The charge itself comes from plugging the Power skin into your computer (USB cable is included) and will offer you plenty of extra power for when you’ve bottomed out so to speak. Up to 230 hours standby time 3.9 hours talk time 3.9 hours internet use on 3G 19 hours audio play and 5.4 video hours can be yours on a full MiLi charge which should get you through that flight where you forgot to bring your charger. The best thing about it though is that you’ll barely notice it being there. Even if you do then its prettiness and attractive design will never be a chore to endure. Essentially it’s the ideal gadget for today – impeccably designed and genuinely useful when it comes to it. A must-have.

The spectacular international bestseller that introduced Washington-based homicide detective Alex Cross and launched James Patterson’s career as one of the fastest-selling thriller writers in the world — now reissued in striking new cover style. He had always wanted to be famous. When he kidnapped two well-known rich kids it was headline news. Then one of them was found — dead — and the whole nation was in uproar. For such a high-profile case they needed the top people — Alex Cross a black detective with a PhD in psychology and Jezzie Flanagan an ambitious young Secret Service agent — yet even they were no match for the killer. He had the unnerving ability to switch from blood-crazed madness to clear-eyed sanity in an instant. But was he the helpless victim of a multiple-personality disorder — or a brilliant cold-blooded manipulator?

Ferrari Vs Lamborghini Driving Experience Drive two ultimate Italian supercars in one action-packed day. The motoring press have called the Lamborghini Gallardo a “modern miracle”. When you put your foot down the V10 engine wails behind your head and pushes you forward at an incredible pace. The Ferrari is quite simply one of the most famous supercars of all time and never disappoints. The luxurious leather may lull you into a false sense of security, but this car is a thoroughbred and loves to be driven to the limit. After your welcome and introduction, you will be given a briefing on the circuit and driving techniques. Next you will be treated to familiarisation laps with the instructor in order to get accustomed to the racing lines. Next up are your sessions driving either a Ferrari 360 or 355, and driving a Lamborghini Gallardo, where you will be able to test these cars to the limit! Please note, programme varies depending on location, please check on booking. At some locations there is an indemnity registration form that is completed on the day of the experience, a term states that the driver may be liable up to the first £2000 for any damage caused whilst they are driving. Some drivers may want to reduce this risk and pay for an indemnity up front. This means that as long as they are not driving recklessly and following the direction of the instructor, they will not be liable for this amount. The indemnity costs £20 and can be purchased on the day when registering for an experience. Please check on booking.  About Ferrari Vs Lamborghini Driving Experience When can you go?
