From DH a Kindle and a leather cover for it. Just what I wanted. From DD1 a voucher for DH and I to have two nights away in a hotel with posh dinner and breakfast. We have not had a holiday for two years as looking after m-in-law so will be very lovely to have this treat. Will wait for the Spring before going. From DS (who is really strapped for cash at the moment) a £10 Amazon voucher and the DVD of the King's Speech. From DD2 tickets to go and see Billy Elliot the Musical. I loved the film so hoping the musical will be as good. From sister an Amazon token for books for my Kindle and from Mum-in-law a necklace and earrings. Loved all my pressies and DH and children loved theirs. A lovely day even though I am not at all well at the moment.
