    I got a plate very similar to that one from B&M, and a gravy boat, and two tall mugs for our snowman soup x

    i have a half finished sock monkey, if i finish it in time it can go in the hamper, got tom a personalized book which i did online, may also put in his peppa pig annual in. snowmen soup and mugs, (new beaker for tom), and some sweets or biscuits for us to eat. i like the plate may have to have a look for something similar.

    My Poundland has some great CDs with Christmas tunes. I bought one yesterday - had White Christmas by Bing Crosby, Let it snow, Frosty the Snowman and lots more. they also had one with Christmas carols. Thought it would make a good addition to my hamper.
