 redface: Each year on Christmas morning my nearest and dearest have a small Christmas bag by the side of their bed.

During the course of the year I scour charity shops for things to put into them. I am looking for things that are appropriate for the people for whom the bag is intended. They are then finished off with a small Christmas cake (which are baked in small empty baked bean tins) a satsuma and chocolate.
