So, here’s the crane m2 from Zhiyun. This is a gimble that allows you to be as heavy handed and unstable as want you as want when filming, it can hold smart phones, go-pros and other small scale mirrorless cameras as well as offering a large scope for movement to keep the camera steady and level. Operating your camera using buttons on the handle is nice and easy. To use zoom and capture/record you can connect via Bluetooth or use the buttons on the handle which are very responsive and tactile.

I would like to say I own two dogs and two cats but in reality, I own two dogs and I am the butler to two cats.  One of the cats is 14 years old and all she does all day is wait to be fed and if left alone with her - and the other cat’s - food, she would gorge herself until she were fit to burst.

The Ridgerunner by Warbonnet is a very lightweight and easy to set up bridge-style hammock. Whilst being compact and only weighing 27oz, the Ridgerunner is an excellent bit of kit to carry around with you. The hammock features a mosquito net which can be pulled tight, so it never makes contact with your body or face and an additional bottom layer that hangs below the hammock for additional protection against insects.

We’ve all seen dozens of Monopoly revamps over the years. Themed for every major fandom and license, there’s a novelty Monopoly for everyone, but it’s far less common for the actual gameplay of this household classic to get switched up. First patented in 1904, Monopoly was originally called ‘The Landlord's Game’ and was created to show the harms of the rent laws at the time. In 1933, it settled into the version we recognise today, and it’s continued to set families against each other ever since.

So, here’s an interesting way to keep a hold of your dog, this is the darth Vader dog lead by TMF. The lead features a rechargeable red LED strip light and reflective stitching to allow you to safely walk at night and and look like the Sith lord himself. The handle of the lead is also just so happens to look like the hilt of the lightsabre which is comfortable to hold and has a button to turn on the light and simultaneously make the iconic sounds.

The worst thing for me about camping is struggling to sleep with uncomfortable beds.  I have tried many different types of foam beds and air beds, all of which are a poor substitute to a real bed.

In the UK a fire pit is the norm in our gardens. Even in early or late summer the temperature plummets at night and a fire pit is guaranteed to take the edge off those cooler evenings. There is also something mesmerising about sitting outside and watching the flames, I love evenings like this.

We had a Swingball set when I was a kid. It was a simple set-up – you stuck the pole in the ground and whacked the ball as hard as you could (or, with a bit more precision, if you were actually trying to play). The rackets that came with that game were pretty much the same as this set has now, but this upgrade has a few key differences that we were lacking back then. The obvious one is, of course, the wobble base.
