    Of course! There's nothing wrong with being civilised.

    I'll swap you, I like a drop of red.

    I got a bottle of Bollinger from my agent which was pretty decent I thought, but I don't like champagne.

    Is it a mellow red or one of those sickly fruity types?

    Use them wisely. We don't want another Wilmslow.

    And when told that my 7 year old neice had expressed an interest in knitting, she replied joyfully "Oh I've had some wool for years, and I was wondering what to do with it!", and this Christmas my neice's present was a ball of wool with a couple of knitting needles shoved through it.

    The bad thing is I can't take it back to cloggers as we're only doing hand luggage.

    I will have to make my best efforts to drink that and help Mr N with his Dalwhinnie.

    Most stuff was good.

    Strangest was an Easter Island heads ice cube tray.

    Geekiest was touch screen gloves (i.e. special tips to thumb and forefinger that work with capacitive touchscreen). Which could potentially be useful except I lost my HTC desire a couple of weeks ago so am using ancient iPAQ at the moment.

    Least imaginitive was cheap bottle of bubbly from agent.
