Boo-hoo, Ben. I thought this blog was created for a bit of creativity and the like, not a place for the editor to complain about microwave meals for one. Loner. You need a good woman, son, to look after you, like my old mum looks after me. Chips on tap, that’s what I’ve got and the odd kebab thrown in when she fancies a walk.

Anyway, this week I’ve got a couple of cool products to chuck your way. If you love big cans and you’ve got an ear for a good choon then you need to take a look at the SK Pro’s from super-fashionable brand Skullcandy. These guys have a very cool reputation, so you know that once they’re on your head they’re going to look good. They also have all the specifications you’d expect from a pair of £96 headphones: 50mm drivers and a frequency response of 20-20,000Hz. Comfort wise, you won’t have to suffer for the fashion as these have soft leather earcups, and 90-degree swivelling action. A very nice pair.

Portable speakers are all the rage these days. For iPod owners the sensible choice is one with a dock. However, if you want to look further toward speakers with just a line in cable then you should look at the Parrot PARTY. This cool looking speaker system can be battery or mains powered. It delivers a surprisingly good sound for its size, and as well as the line in you can stream music from a Bluetooth device, like your phone (sadly not your iPhone). Definitely worth a look if you can handle losing a dock. A smart little unit with a with a cracking sound. They’ll set you back £79.99 so they’re not cheap, but if you’ve got the cash then give them a go.
