Skydiving is said to be one of those amazing experiences you must do before you die. The only problem is that it aint cheap and for many of us it’s a little daunting jumping out of a plane to say the least! There’s also the fact that you are strapped to some person you’ve never met before and are completely guided by them… well NO MORE!
Airkix is an Indoor Skydiving arena in Milton Keynes. You need no previous experience, no change of underwear and it’s suitable for all ages above 5!
The centre has been open for just 9 months and attracted over 25k visitors. In essence you fly on a pocket of wind generated from an industrial fan which hits you at a constant flow of 150mph (same speed as if you were doing it for real).

If you are looking for a highly useful gift idea for a ‘gadget head’ look no further! The new Kensington Bluetooth solution is a great way of linking your MP3 phone with a Bluetooth adapter (plugged into your 12v ‘cigarette lighter’ socket) into your car stereo’s AUX port. Basically it enables users to enjoyyour music and answer calls without additional cables.
Having tried it out I can honestly say that it is beautifully clear and even an idiot could install it…
It offers a built-in microphone with noise and echo-canceling technology makes for clear conversations whilst driving. Users just press the phone icon on the remote (attached to your steering wheel) to automatically mute your music and take a call over the car’s stereo. It also works with the phone’s voice activation technology to make calls without having to touch it. A USB charging port ensures that the phone stays charged.
Check out this little gadget which makes shaving your back a simple, painless and fast process. It’s called the Razorba and is basically a well designed extended arm for a standard razor.
The Razorba is the patented razor handle wand that holds your favourite razor, ergonomically designed and tested by men with back hair and works with any standard razors. Made from the same material as ski helmets-high impact ABS plastic this little godsend won’t break easily…
As to whether it makes a nice pressie for a loved one with a hairy back… hmmmmm.
