With its 700mm gooseneck flexible extension with a mounting clip on one end and a phone grasping clip at the other, my “Lazy Arm” mobile phone holder has been something of a Godsend since I picked it up from Genie Gadgets (suggested retail price of £8.95).

Happy Birthday to Young’s Pubs
Young’s Pubs turned a spritely 184 years old last week. I tagged along to one of the group’s best (and best loved) venues, The Ship in Wandsworth. It was a fun time in an excellent boozer.

It’s worth keeping in mind if you like hair-brained situation comedy.
