    We have enough points to use for Hilton stay and according to their website there is a new (double tree?) in Newcastle not far from the station. Ive been mulling it over for a while, thinking of activites possibly doing an over night in Newcastle en route to Edinburgh or on the way back - def p & p for whatever the free monthly drink is ...

    Oh has requested head and shoulders shampoo - it is not his birthday for a while yet so it is not going on the list :(

    What do people use instead - the non branded much cheaper version?

    There's one in Home Bargains that I am told is good - looks a bit like H&S, as it uses the same colours, but I can't remember the name sorry.
