WOW… check out this pirate ship. At £28,000 it has to be one of the most expensive toys available this Christmas and it’s available from Hamley’s, London’s infamous toy store.
It’s hand crafted and suitable for all those budding Captain Jack Sparrows. It would need to sit outside (unless you’ve got room of course), and is fitted with upper and lower decks, anti-slip decking, fore and aft cabins with windows and cannons. With a solid brass bell, personalised brass plaque, Jolly Roger and ships wheel this will bring a smile to the most spoilt miserable kid!
Dimensions: (H) 5.9 x (W)2.2 x (L) 7.5 metres.

• Six high output burners
• A wok burner
• A roasting hood with viewing window
• Warming rack and reflector system
The BBQ is sure to have a few stooped millionaires cooking up a sweat over it.
