Thank you, ChasingSquirrels. Relieved to know that 'dd' wasn't an acronym for direct debit!

Fiver in card.

Children here often make "gift vouchers" as a promise to get something in the future.

One my daughter had was to go to her favourite shop with the child & choose her present herself-she thought that that was great!

Usually it´s a trip to the cinema or theatre.
