My Dinosawesome New Bell and Other Dino-buys

Bell, £4.99 from A Fudge & Sons Ltd, 176 Chiswick High Street.

Some things I think ought to be extinct; guy I see every morning in the white see-through Lycra, I’m looking at you. Some things, I’m glad, are brought back from extinction, like bum bags which are excellent for when you don’t need to fill a whole pannier. And some things that nod to the extinct like my wicked new dino-bell. Ding ding.

In homage to my dinosawsome new bell here are my favourite dino-buys that may well see money becoming extinct from my bank account very soon:

Tatty Devine Dinosaur Necklace £125

Pre-historic perfection in Perspex.

Apollo Claws Boys Helmet, Halfords £18.39

I’ve asked before and I’ll ask it again, how do I lose weight off only my head so I can fit into kids' helmets? *Shaves off hair*.

Ready to Stare Dinosaur Necklace £12.84

These guys have a whole dinosaur range full of neon full pieces on chunky chains. Love. Love. Love.

River Island Dinosaur Socks £3

This one is for the boys, and the girls who steal boys’ socks. So, all the girls. Ok, me.

Eclectic Eccentricity Dinosaur Friendship Bracelet £15

Choose from a triceratops or brontosaurus. AS IF I’m not going to buy both.

Worn By Dinosaur Sweatshirt from ASOS £55

I love this colourful all-over print dinosweater. It would be great for evenings when the temperature turns.

Hand Over Your Fairy Cakes RAWR Broach £10

Not to be confused with 'ROAR'. That's Lion.

Dirty Cotton Scoundrels T-Rex t-shirt, Truffle Shuffle £22.99

Keep British Glam Rock alive and stomping by wearing Marc Bolan across your chest.

Dinosaur Mug, Natural History Museum £10

Oh, I just got the Tea-Rex pun. Traumatise young children by showing them how drinking coffee kills dinosaurs. Then redeem yourself by taking them to see the Extinction: Not the End of the World exhibition which runs until the 8th September.

I'm going to leave the last word with Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs who I have been listening to while writing this:
