What about - cola cubes, red starbursts/fruitellas/red skittles out of a larger bag/cough candy (some of the bagged ones - I think from Tescos are more red than orange/aniseed balls/single gobstoppers.
Not sure if they sell them over here but I have a packet of Frezy from France, that are red marshmellowy love hearts and are strawberry flavoured. Since you are always so happy to help people out, let me know if you would like them and I'll pop them in the post if you pm me your address.2016 is the year I am going to find time for me, and cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.It is also time to save - Aim £4,000 - So far this year - £230/£4,0000 -

I am thinking of making my OH a chinese food hamper for his birthday. I have seen an electric wok advertised in Lidl and wondered if anyone has ever used one before. Oh loves using his wok so would he be disppointed with an electric one (can you tell I am not the chef in our house!!)?
if I do decide to make it I will def be pinching ideas from your's rainmac:rotfl:saving for ds2's summer international scout camp - £200

Thankyou guys, some fantastic suggestions there really appreciate it.
CT thankyou for the kind offer, I don't think OH would like them as he prefers jellies to foamy/marshmallowy things, thankyou very much though. Very kind.Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -
I am doing a red themed basket for OH for valentines day .... Could do with some suggestions so I have a variety to pick from if that makes sense.
pot of love (same as pot of gold but red sweets and red scratch cards and a lottery ticket)
Bottle of wine (red with red label as it is his fav wolfblass)
couple of glasses (will probably put in some red tissue paper or something)
box of chockies or toffee - will prob have to wrap in red tissue paper
some home made heart shaped biscuits
DVD (hopefully one with a red cover?)
Can anyone else suggest anything?Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -
RustyFlange - how about heart-shaped handwarmers/pocket-warmers? YKWIM! Red fabric with rice inside that he can pop in the microwave/on top of a radiator - then you can tell him that your heart will always keep him warm.
How cheesy is that some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it0 -
