While I'm going through my list -can anyone tell me the best./cheapest place to get a digital photo frame from ?
Cheaper the better really -its for my son and his girlfriend and they're already having other stuff. Was going to get one last year and got something else instead.

Also getting a bit stuck on what to get little grandson -he'll be 2 1/2 at Christmas..........already got him books, puppet theatre with finger puppets and a sponge painting kit from charity shop -want to get him one thing thats actually 'new' and not used to his age group (other grandchildren are 17)

Don't forget batteries for your wii controls, you have everything else you need. I have had a wii for a while now and it is great fun. Have fun with it, as long as you have the controls, nunchucks, wii and games you are fine.

Your post reminded me of a funny gift I gave my brother one year.. a box beautifully wrapped with four batteries inside and a tag saying "gift not included!" he thought it was so funny!

Batteries are the most important part off Christmas, on many ocassions we have not bought the right ones, even though each year we go through presents and make a note of batteries needed, I know I will forget again this year.
