CURIOSITY CORNER: FIREFOX CHRISTMAS GIFT CATALOGUE 2012

On opening the Firebox catalogue that arrived through my letter box I was greeted by the usual novelty lights, novelty mugs, novelty T-Shirts, novelty gloves, novelty novelties and suchlike. It was only when I reached the back pages that I was presented with these mind boggling and expensive array of gifts. Anyone got a spare couple of hundred grand?

Project Utopia Price On Application

Here's the blurb:
"Before we begin it’s worth pointing out that this product will set you back several hundred million, minimum. Still reading? Good. Now that we’ve got rid of all the rubbernecking paupers we can elaborate because Project Utopia deserves your full attention, unencumbered by thoughts of ogling millionaires; this baby is strictly for billionaires and beyond. 

You see in order to showcase their astounding capabilities, our good friends at Yacht Island Design and BMT Nigel Gee have set about developing several concept proposals, the most bonkers of which is the breathtakingly awesome Project Utopia. No, this isn’t a joke. 

Measuring 100m in length and breadth, and spanning over 11 luxed-out decks, there is enough room on Project Utopia to create an entire micro-nation. It’s ideal for ocean-going megalomaniacs bent on world domination. And you needn’t worry about puking on your Nehru jacket because this floating behemoth is designed for minimum motion, even in the most extreme sea conditions." 



If you're not a billionaire you could just go 
for one of these instead
