    Hi all

    I was reading the suggestions for Grandma's present.

    What about a digital photo frame - I've never had one and was wondering if you need batteries for it?

    Hey guys need some advice on whether I am being a stingy gift giver!!! I have just done a test run for my pots of Gold and in them I have 3 coins, small, medium and large, 2 ferrero rocher, 3 caramel werthers and 3 wethers original and a cadbury wish and then a scratchcard, when i get them! Is this stingy? I am using small plant pots approx 3"? Would upload a pic but have no idea how to do that!

    Legendmum that seems good for a small pot, if there is any room you could put some gold wrapping paper or something like that scrunched in the bottom.

    Pics, do you have them on a flicker type album? If you do then go to the reply box and look at the icons above - go to the yellow square (4th from the right) - press on that and then insert the link to your photo.

    This is the link to Flickr - uploading photos page but you will need to look at the Take a Tour page to see what it's all bout

    Basically, you need one of these types of albums to get your photos from your computer onto any website

    They look very nice Legendmum and full so not stingy at all. Are you popping cellophane around them?

    I know it was quite a few pages back now, but someone asked about Twilight stuff I think? (or for anyone who is interested). There was LOADS of Twilight stuff in the Claires Accessories today, 75% off. I don't really like it or know anyone wh o majorly does, but it was all nice stuff, not just kid stuff :)
