    How about a gift bag with a couple of bottles of beer, some fancy crisps and socks with a funny slogan on them. This sort of thing goes down a storm with my DS.

    Goodness what an ending, I had my doubts about the retired policeman and his daughter, but not the other killer. Having looked last evening I see that there are 4 or 5 of the Shetland series that we have not read, 2 of them now requested from the library:D
