One of those towel poncho changing robe things for the swimming pool on cold winter days. Can't justify spending £25 of real money when I have perfectly good normal towels I can use..but I still want one.

New watch strap for my Apple Watch

(1) I collect glass paperweights so anything pretty off eBay
(2) I also collect decorative eggs
(3) scented candles will always go down well - not in a boring default gift way - anyone who has ever spent time here knows I light one every evening.
