    I came out of Poundland (Reading) with a fantastic haul today, best buy was a Bob the Builder rewards / sticker / colour / activity book, it has a really nice rewards chart that you would use to encourage good behaviour / chores / potty training perhaps and a wipe of pen too plus loads and loads of stickers (gold stars and regular Bob characters) - I buy my DS (19mths) sticker / activity books regularly from Poundland and they give so much entertainment for £1, Poundland Rocks!!!

    I got some really good wee Pocoyo books in the Dundee store, it didn't sound quite as good when I was reading it at bedtime to my dd, it just seems odd not being in Srephen Fry's voice.
    Booo!!!

    I got OH one of these yesterday in Manchester http://www.amazon.co.uk/Salter-505Orsscr-Electronic-Thermometer-Silicone/dp/B000EW92YE

    He makes his own wine so I thought it would be a funny gift for him, they'd be nice if you were doing a hamper for a wine buff.

    I got a glowing orb that changes colors (batteries included). It could be used as a nightlight, or perhaps in place of a candle whilst soaking in the tub. The display box called it a toy, guess it's whatever you want it to be. It's about the size of a Rubik's Cube (if those were round).

    I like the look of these, anyone seen them in Nottingham at all.

    Got one from Derby yesterday - they had lots in the gardening section. Also had lots of Anthea Turner's book and One Foot In The Grave book.
    Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift - the present. ;)

    I bought one of these for myself and my Dad for Winemaking too. I am impressed by the temperature range, it should be useful for other culinary things as well.
