Tweeting Gloves for Winter 2012

/

Last winter I bought myself these fancy as hell brown leather gloves. I was the bee's knees. Until I realised I am surgically attached to my iPhone, so whether I was waiting outside school for my son or spotting something in a shop window I wanted to photo & price check, the gloves spent more time stuffed in my pocket than on my hands. 

Internet access always won over hand cosiness. Etre emailed me with their nautical autumn/winter collection & I immediately spied their Touchy Gloves. 

It's the natural evolution of gloves for us smart phone addicts, simply removing the index finger tip & thumb means you can tweet from the bus stop without having to undress your handies.

Sea-faring colour schemes are my favourite, and would also make a great gift for Dads who are notoriously tricky to buy for at Christmas.

Get Your Cat a Giant Strawberry Shaped Bed

/

What are you doing this evening? Me? I'm just coaxing my cat into a giant strawberry with bits of chicken.

She sleeps in the kitchen at night and its bloody freezing down there so I've upgraded her from normal cat bed to giant strawberry castle. For heat benefits, obviously. Not just so I can see a cat inside a strawberry house.

I got mine on worldwide eBay so it was dirt cheap. Here's the link.
