ALL HEART
If you’ve ever been accused of not wearing your heart on your sleeve, you can now wear your heart on your torso, with this constant reminder of what matters most emblazoned across your chest. This motif comes on an assortment of different coloured tees, although looks best on the black or white ones, for maximum impact.

THE LEGEND OF TITANIC
This biography, Titanic Thompson: The Man Who Bet On Everything, by Kevin Cook, encapsulates the daring life of one of the sharpest gamblers of all time, famed for becoming the finest grifter of his generation. A controversial and outrageous road gambler, he killed five men and married five women in a rollercoaster life. It’s a must-read for anyone who’s ever placed a bet, and promises to have you hooked from page one.

GREAT OFFENCE
Never one to disappoint, Frankie’s back and more controversial than ever. Filled with outlandish one-liners, he takes you to places that no one else dares to go, in true Frankie style. If you can sit through his satirical, un-pc, debauched comedy without getting offended, you’ll be sure to get some side-splitting laughs with this ruthless instalment from the Hammersmith leg of his tour.

CAUGHT BY THE FUZZ
It’s not often that you can find something that looks great and keeps you warm. A fun and quirky stocking filler, this is the perfect gift for someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously and loves turning a few heads. Bonus points if they’re a CSI fan too!

GREEN GOBLETS
We all know that drinking from the bottle is the manliest of manly ways to drink beer – some might even argue it’s the only way. These goblets are not only a style innovation, but they’re enviro-friendly, as they’re made from recycled bottles – and you can use them again and again. They’re even dishwasher safe. You can choose from classic Grolsch, Sol or Corona twin packs, but each one is bound to make an impression on all your mates.
