A rubber case cover for the Kindle, cheap and effective. I've also just ordered a skull-shaped pint glass and a Darksiders graphic novel....

The leather jacket I ordered has to go back - apparently someone with a 44-inch chest should have the waist of a teenager. Oh, and lifting your arms any higher than said chest would have ripped out the crappy stitching... XL my overweight arse!

Give me some credit! It doesn't even fit my dad and he's far smaller than me. There's absolutely no way it's XL. Maybe XL for metrosexuals or something...

If it's Superdry or any brand like that you need to go one size higher.
