ski hamper

OH is going ski-ing for the first time ever at the end of January. I've just bought him 6 hours worth of lessons at our local slope and am going to build a hamper round it. He has most of the 'big' stuff so I'm looking at smaller items/fun items etc. So far I have
thermal t-shirt
thermal leggings
6 pack of ski socks
Austria ski guide
2 packs of re-useable gel hand warmers
thermal glove liners
ski pass holder
thermal beanie hat
pack of ski straps
Does anyone have any ideas for little things costing a couple of quid from ebay - similar to the ski pass holder?? I've never been ski-ing or anything 'snow' related so have no idea about little 'fun' things I could add - I was thinking of a couple of miniatures to warm him up but he doesn't drink whisky/rum/brandy.
thankyou :T

that sounds really nice
how about some small portable snacks? i know when im snowboarding i get starving and its often hours till lunch! things like cereal bars, chocolate, crisps. has he got goggles or sunglasses yet as they could be included? some nice radox stuff for a bath in the evenings? Anti-Bruise gel? (i cant remember exactly what its called but it comes in a purple tube and really does help!) couple of bandages?!
thats all i can think of at the mo0 -
oooh, nice ideas! He has goggles but no sunglasses. I saw some really cheap ones on ebay but didn't know if they were worth buying (around a fiver).
I'll get some cereal bar type bitsand the bruise stuff and a few bandages :rotfl:

if he's got goggles then i personally wouldnt bother with the sunglasses. They tend to fall of your face when you fall over and dont offer as much protection as goggles.0

:rotfl: A few places do Mr Men stuff - what about Mr Bump stuff? :rotfl: I think Sainsburys have it, there's plasters/bandages and stuff. I think they also do a handwarmer, one of those where you click a small metal disk and it warms up?0 -
