I can't really, I can't really get money over but I can buy my own gift and if you tell me what you're getting, I'll find something to tie in with it.

Thanks to everyone for your lovely thoughts and comments.

Oscar was always a favourite and I shall say nothing about the other suggestions lest I offend anyone... the shortlist was always very short.

As for a pressie for the lad, well I think he would love that. I'm going to print out this thread to put in his baby box and he'll be able to look back and see who it was gave him his special forum gift!

thank you for thinking of it but don't feel you must...

James

So probably not a good idea to start littering this thread with profanities and expletives then?

Ok well suggestions please? I don't mind getting it and taking it to Derby.

Maybe a classic toy? First brio train set?

Should this go to pm's now?

We could make a book...everyone could contribute something like a poem or a short story or something and we pay for it to be bound and look pretty.

Good idea?

Or some of the more artistically inclined (like Michelle Very Happy) could draw a picture. Really, it's an opportunity for us to express ourselves and therefore give a part of ourselves with this gift.
