It’s getting closer and closer to Father’s Day, so if you haven’t as yet bought something for the man who was too silly to pop protection on, then why not consider these slightly silly novelty gadgets?

Whether your ‘pa works in the daily 9-5 grind in an office cubicle, or drives a cab for a living (no doubt your place of conceivement), there’s sure to be a place where he can plonk this USB pole dancer. It’s only £29.95, but before you buy, feast your eyes on the vid we made of it a few months back and consequently almost got us banned from YouTube…
