Nice early T2!.....




Nice late rat look!


Nice eh?


Coke stuff....cool!


Coke Salt & Pepper set
It is a widely acknowledged truth that coca cola tastes better from a glass bottle. Whether salt and pepper are any better from a Coke bottle however remains untested, but you can give it try with this Coke Salt & Pepper Set.
Unlike the classic bottles, the set isn’t made from glass but from chrome, shaped to look like bottles. The dispensers sit in a matching chrome caddy.
The set costs around £18 from Happy Days.


I want one!


VW Camper Van pool table

It appeared in the US at a skateboard festival, offering passers-by a glimpse of a vintage VW van and the option to pot a few balls on a high-class table (the balls are stored under the engine flap).
The current owner paid $8,000 (around £4,000). If you know of another one, let us know.More images of the VW Camper Van pool table at the Winding Road website

Tiki Salt and Pepper!


Shag Tiki salt and pepper set
While we're on the subject of Shag, you might like to know that the Shagmart store has just taken delivery of the Shag Tiki salt and pepper set.
And if you're interested, get in there now - all the tiki-related merchandise always sells through really quick. The shakers, known officially as Pa'Akai and Nioi, are about four inches tall, but as the site helpfully points out, you must provide your own salt and pepper.
Available now, you can pick a set up for $15.95 (around £8).Find out more at the Shagmart website

A few retro accessories that might look good in a van!

Lego salt and pepper pots
For cheap and quirky design, you really need these Lego salt and pepper pots.
Just like your standard salt and pepper dispensers, they come in black and white to identify their use, have the Lego logo on top and if you happen to be short on space on the table, they clip together just like your usual Lego bricks.
Sized at 45mm x 25mm x 25mm and weighing 70g, they retail for $9 (around £4.50).Find out more at the Brando website
