    Rusty the hamper is lovely and your Mil will be really pleased. I made one up for my boss with a dressing gown in and it done my head in they are so bulky it was a nightmare.

    Popkins - the expedit is brilliant for storage I've got one in my study and one each in the children's rooms. Fitted it in my Fiesta but never in my Ka :D

    Want to do a learner driver hamper for a friend's daughter who will be 17 in a couple of months, so any ideas as to what else I could put in it. I've thought of:

    Highway code book/theory book
    L plates/P plates
    Application for a provisional driving licence


    Thanks

    don't know how much you want to spend but you can get a theory test dvd so you can practice it - made by DSA and it is really good. Gives you a very good idea of what to expect. I used it when I did my theory test. :)

    Otherwise maybe chocolate (my instructor used to stick a bar of dairy milk on the dashboard and if I had a good lesson, I "won" it :D ) nice keyring for the car keys (let someone else buy the car ;) )

    I am so glad it isn't just me who struggled then :D ... at least it is done now which is one less hassle :) Just need to wrap it and put a label on there .... I have managed to do one of them in the newspaper things so will print that out from the grandchildren :)

    I have found another shop on Ebay that sells the celo, and I think they send some free ribon too.


    They are called Wrappings and Bows, I will try to post the link in a mo.
