Hey all, today Im going to be sharing with you my top 5 Kitchen and home geek gadget must haves, just some fun quirky finds that will brighten and geek up any home. 
If you prefer to  watch my youtube video on this post click here 
Number one is Pixel oven gloves which can be purchased from Iwantoneofthose.com for 10.99 or 8.99 from Amazon, these are just super geeky, I love anything pixel designed probably because I'm a huge minecraft fan

 Number 2 is Retro salt & pepper alien shakers, again another geeky kitchen must have, which can also be purchased from iwantoneofthose.com for £6.99

Number 3 is the Social shower curtain for any Facebook geeks out there this really is must have, and would bring a bit of comedy to any shower room :) £14.99 from Spinning Hat

Number 4 is the LED mood candles with remote control, these are a great ornament or decoaryve item to have, and are much safer than candles, they are made of real wax so look the business but they have an LED bulb which can be controlled to different settings and colours of your choice, and at a bargain sale price of £16.49 on Amazon I would go snap these up.

Number 5 and my most favourite out the lot as got the be slide to unlock door mat, being a super apps geek I spotted this on Amazon for £19.99 a while back and just had to get it, its a great quality door mat with added quirky geekiness, that always brings conversation when friends/family are leaving and entering our house.

Minecraft Geek Haul

Hello peeps today Im going to be showing you my latest Minecraft buys! as many of you may know Im a big minecrfat fan, started playing it on pc/imac about 12 months ago and now also on the xbox.
I always like to pick up merchandise for any certain game Im addicted too! so first up is my minecraft foam pickaxe....how cool!? when I first saw these on line I was like "I got to have it!" but the price was  around £25+ and thought I would wait a little, and boy was I glad I did because last week Game tweeted on twitter that they had reduced it to £16.99 and when I went online to buy it, it only cost me £9 because I had rewards points! so well happy with that bargain :)
Next is my minecraft diamond wristband, not real diamonds ;) this was from ebay for about £8 delivered and is actually a kids size but I have tiny wrists so it fits well, next  is my minecraft stickers again from ebay these are priced at around £5 inc delivery and look great!
Last of all an probably my most favourite is my Mineraft diamond armour T-shirt from Jinx store on minecraft.net, this cost approx £27 delivered and I love it! fits great and quality material defo one of my fav geek t-shirts.

Kodak ZX5 HD Pocket Camcorder

I have been looking around for a decent pocket camcorder for my youtube reviews, I have no problems using my iPhone 4s I think the recording quality is pretty impressive, however I do want one for recording apps on my iPhone 4S, and it will defo come in handy on days out with the family. I initially was going to get the Kodak zi8 after hearing pretty positive reviews, but when i did price comparisons It actually worked out cheaper to get Kodak's latest model, which still held all the features and specs that I needed, so I finally decided to get the Kodak ZX5 Play Sport. 

Its a full HD, 1080p and 720P Pocket camcorder, its shock proof to 1.5m and waterproof to 3m, which explains it being a sport camcorder, so great for recording outdoor activities. 
It as a 2" LCD colour screen and WVGA recording modes. It can take still images of 5mp quality and features autofocus and face detection.

I love the quality of this device is small comfortable to hold in your hand and pretty light weight at 125g, I love the side panels that can be flipped up to allow access to the usb and HDMI port on the left hand side and memory card SD/SDHC memory card slot on the right.

It as easy sharing features for youtube, facebook and email, and also allows you to do some basic editing to your videos actually on the device such as trimming. 

And should you wish to edit your videos with software, Windows OS based computers can install Arcsoft media impression for Kodak, which will allow your to edit and customise your video footage whilst Mac OS users like myself can use iMovie just as smoothly to edit too.

You can connect the camcorder to your pc/mac using the USB lead it comes with and this can also charge the device aswell, but it does come with plug adapter too. 

After recording a few videos I decided to connect it to my tv via HDMI and check out my recordings on big screen, and was pretty impressed with the nice clear footage without much effort at all, and a great way to show off your recordings to a group of friends or family.

I was very pleased to find that my new Kodak fits perfectly in my iPhone 4s flexi pod stand which I got from ebay for £7.99 check out my previous review, which will make it even easier to record any unboxings or product reviews Im doing.

The Kodak ZX5 also as a very impressive stability feature, I recorded some footage on both my Kodak and iPhone 4s simultaneously and the iPhones footage was all over the place bumping up and down where as the Kodak's was super steady and more controlled so that was very impressive.

Over I really don't have any negatives to say about this product, i mean its still only early days and haven't been using for a long period of time so bare that in mind, however for the price its a steal. 
The rrp for this is appox £129 and Amazon are selling them at a great discount at the moment, bizarrely all mixed prices depending on colour but here they are:

Green £71.93 Blue £78 White £78.74 Black £84.99 and Red £89.99

Im a very big fan of lime green and white when it comes to buying any technology so the green caught my eye straight away and I was very pleased to see it was the cheapest too! 

So I got mine for approx  £60 cheaper, and it was so worth it.

Should you have any questions please contact me and also check out my youtube video on the ZX5 here.

iphone 4/4s camera/video pod

I really wanted to get back in to my reviewing videos on youtube and wanted a pod stand so I can record footage easily. I did some research and cam across Joby's Gorillapod for iPhone 4 and 4s but was rather put off at the price of £34.95, so had a search on the glorious ebay and came across a much cheaper version, I new full well it would not be of the same quality but for £7.99 including delivery I thought I would risk it.
Well I am glad I did, the pod does exactly what I needed t for it holds my iPhone 4s in a stable and suitable position whilst i capture those certain images and video footage. The case is sturdy and holds my iPhone firmly on place and it then screws on to the stand or can be clicked in place, it won't screw on fully but thats so then you can navigate your phone around to your desired position.
Stay tuned for my future video uploads as they will have been used with my new pod.

The big bargain!

Bazinga! what a deal, Im super happy to have pre-ordered The big bang theory Bobble heads set of figures, at a bargain price of £19.99, for that price you can collect them and keep them stored in the box for future geeks or nerd up your office / home / space with these ever so cute decorative items.
Im an ultimate big bang theory fan and had been looking for some merchandise, so when I came across these at forbidden planet I just had to get them.
Any other tbbt fans here?

Lollipop Chainsaw

I pre-ordered my copy of Lollipop chainsaw for the xbox and collected it from my local Game store on the day of the UK release 15th June. After hearing so many mixed reviews and opinions but knowing it was a unique game and nothing quite like it on the market I just had to try it and my opinion.. I love it!
Basically the story line is: Juliet a special zombie killing cheer leader, who very kindly decapitaed her boyfriends head after he was bitten by a zombie so he wouldn't get poisoned, performed a special ritual on his head so he could live and now wears him on a key chain attached to her mini skirt.....I know crazy !
Her boyfriend can be used through out the game on certain tasks and his head can be placed an a headless zombie's allowing him to be navigated around.
The game consists of many mini challenges and it divides the game up rather than it having a more free open play which in my opinion I quite liked.  I thought the Zombie basket ball mission was rather amusing!
I haven't yet completed the game so can't comment on the full story line, but so far so good. 
Pro's: Unique story line, colourful, fun and the main character is female (more games should have leading female characters)
Cons: Corny story lines at parts, don't like the fact that because a girl is in it they have to have pigtails in and the most revealing of outfits!, some kind of online multiplayer option would of been cool
I give this xbox game title a 8.5/10
Have you played the game whats your opinions ?
I really like it and hope for a Lollipop chainsaw 2
