    One morning on my friend's birthday - her daughter gave her a present as she was saying goodbye at the school gates. it was a guide book for toront. She turned to hubby and said Ohh are we going there? He said yes in about an hour - you need to go home and pack!

    Bless.
    leaving the kids at school. ;) what a great idea :D . Roxie there was a thread for a holiday hamper on here, you could do something like that with any bits he'd need for the trip or flight (socks, mag) and add the prague book.
