Wow Rusty, what a lot of fab stuff!!! Off to have a look at the Stig t-shirt for my OH as it's his b'day in February...:wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:0 -
Rusty - thanks for the list and little pigs -thanks for the link
I'd have to adjust my list of stuff - this lad's only 12 but he just loves the Top Gear programme. I've got plenty of time to gather a few bits together but at least now I have an idea where I'm going with it.
Can't help you with any more idea Rusty - sounds like you've got a fair few things for him already.Mary
I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

The tshirt was supposed to be £17.99 but I found a code somewhere for a %age off and used that it brough it down to just over £14 but now I can't remember where I found the code. I will keep looking for you though

I have bought one more item for my grans hamper today. So far she has in there a 1939 music cd, some Jordans museli, a homemade flannel cake thing, and a tin of old fashioned sweets.
For my anti valentines day hamper I managed to pick up some twinnings hot choc.:wave: Wins in 09 = A vodka cocktail kit thing lol, £150 Amazon voucher.0 -
I am about to kill my OH ... he has an interview tomorrow .... in Aberdeen which means if he gets the job he will be away again ....
However he says last night right I need to go shopping, I need a new suit, shirt, tie and a new bag ...
Fantastic, bang goes the present idea that Sian gave to me
I think I might have talked him out of the bag, and I think I can talk him out of the tie and shirt .... these were all things on the list ....
He does this every year will say oooh I will buy that and I either have to shout at him or just change my ideas!Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -

Glad it's not just my other half. The number of times I have had to divert his attention - can remember at least 3 times in the run up to Christmas.
I go into panic mode if he looks like getting it himself as 9 times out of 10 I will have carefully stored away the information and either got him it myself, or told one of his family to get it him!0 -

I haven't forgotten you, your Valentine hamper 'bits' are now together, I just need to post them! Hopefully will do today/tomorrow

Bought these silver boxes in Home Bargains today - 6 boxes for £1.99. The largest is like a big shoe box size...
They are branded Hallmark and are fab quality!
Home Bargains also had sets of 4 square wicker baskets for £4.99 (quite large).:wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:0 -
