I did scroll through a few pages to see if this has been asked.
i have dc 26, 24 and 18. I’ve got their main presents of clothes and theatre tickets and now just want to get bits. I’ll get smellies and choc but could still do with a few things to open on Christmas Day…
What have you got your big kids? Eldest is female, other two are lads… they’re all quite musical, not big on sport although eldest is a runner…

Running gloves is a great shout, dd struggles with circulation and gets really cold
